Same Time, Same Place

.

Another year, another party.

Some things never change, at least not in small towns. Around here, you hang out with the same people from the time you're a teenager until you're old; you hang out at the same place, and go to the same parties year after year.

Then, eventually, it's your children who take over for you. They start hanging out together in the same places you hung out when you were young and going to the same parties.

So, in Castleton, we have occasions that we look forward to every year and one is the fishing party.

This particular picture was taken sometime in the 90s. Possibly around the time, I started going to said fishing parties. It's a light-hearted moment. A group of friends standing around at a party, just having a good time.

My father is surrounded by people, as always, looking like he's having a great time. He always seemed to enjoy himself at every party and the fishing party was one of his favorites.

It's just a casual photo documenting one of my favourite times a year.
