We met this local lady in Tygh Valley New Year’s eve day. This is the only photograph that survived the day. The reason? I uploaded it from my phone via a Flickr Tweet. The rest of the photos and my phone rest at the bottom of a pond. The reason? New Year’s Day my dog Jane fell through a crack in the ice and the phone was lost to the pond during her rescue. Jane made it as did I. The phone didn’t and won’t be fetched from the pond until spring. We are lucky. Phones are replaceable. Good ‘ol dogs aren’t.
