As a kid I would love to climb through these brick circles at our local shopping center. I loved it even more because my grandpa actually did the brick work. My dad’s dad was a talented bricklayer. I just barely remember him as he passed away when I was little. But I always smile when I see these circles knowing that many years ago he stood in that very spot, crafting an awesome brick sculpture.
Since Jasper was born I’ve wanted to get some pictures of him there. Finally the opportunity arose on Sunday as we were in town, with my camera and the store was closed. I snapped a few quickly. (Josh was laying on the ground behind because we were all a little nervous about Jasper standing up in it.) It makes me happy to have these pictures. I think my grandpa would really like it too.
