”That’s it! Lara’s long hair flew in the breeze as she stretched herself out, looking away from the camera. I snapped at each pass until the fil... advance lever tightened up.“All right, that’s it,” I called out. “Thanks.”As I was packing up, Lara spoke. “What time is Mom getting us?”“At five.”“Forty-five minutes,” Pete said, checking his watch.“We’ll be back by then,” Lara told me.“Where are you going?” I asked.“Just for a walk!” she chirped innocently.They headed off for the woods, arm in arm..
