Devlin discovers the sprinkler.
I made this photo of my grandson Devlin discovering the sprinkler in 2004, when he was almost three. He's 26 now, and at 6'2"and 210 pounds, is definitely a big boy. He's also a recent graduate from the University of Tennessee, where he studied
something in nuclear physics so advanced I don't even know how to tell you about it.
I suspect he does not consider the sprinkler episode to have been his finest moment.

Now it's time for the next step. Devlin and his fiancee, the lovely Anna-leise Bradbury, are to be married next Thursday, June 4th, at a mountain-top venue above Sevierville, Tennessee. Both families are fully involved, with relatives coming from near and far.
Also, on Saturday we're having a reunion of the guys from the Bible Study groups I led at UT-Chattanooga from 2006 to 2017. They're coming from several states and some are bringing their families. It will be great to see them all again.
So it's going to be a busy week. Thankfully,I won't be the official photographer for Devlin's wedding -- I no longer have the stamina for that -- but I'll be taking plenty of snaps and will post a few when the dust has settled.
The photo of Devlin with the sprinkler was made with my first digital camera -- a Canon EOS 10D with the EF 28-105mm lens. Kim made the picture of Devlin and Anna-leise with her iPhone.
