One Indelible Moment
This was taken on the isle of Naxos, on the way back from Zeus's cave (you can see the path on the right), an hour or two before sunset.
We had whole the valley to ourselves, at least as far as humans go. I don't think either one of us will forget the sight of those mountains, with the sun lighting up the distant ocean. Or the symphony of birdsong that underscored the tinkling of the bells worn by the countless mountain goats that dotted the hills.
Add to that the call and response between Zach and those goats, with baaaing back and forth across the valley as we walked along that stone path, and you can imagine how surreal a time it was.
The picture doesn't do it justice.
