Smells can really trigger strong memories. Occasionally I’ll catch a wiff of something and it will instantly take me back 30 years to a very specific time and place.

Reflections Originally uploaded by Big Dadoo. We’re at the lake this weekend and the weather is great. We’ve actually been suntanning on the dock!
