This young Vancouver family jogging at Olympic Village presented an "idyllic" scene. I smiled, waved and pointed at my camera. They smiled and acknowledged it was ok to take.
My grandparents came to Canada from Germany just before WWI to escape the political tensions there. He was a musician and a teacher there but gave that up - to be "free" in Canada. I inherited his accordion, one of the many instruments he played. The bible was my aunt's, given to her by my grandfather- a treasure handed to me when my dad passed away. I found the beautiful Easter Card and the sheets of Christmas Music tucked away in the bible.
