When we got inside Costco, Kathy wanted to shop for some small things, so I said I would hang out in the book section. I came around the corner and there were these two really cute kids sitting on the floor enjoying two of the books on display. I immediately thought about taking their photograph and was reaching for my toy camera on my belt when I had a thought: "What if a parent saw me taking some photographs of their kids?" I am harmless of course, but you never know. So then a brilliant idea hit me - I got out my iPhone which doesn't seem like a camera. I was leaning forward on the shopping cart and I think it would appear that I was just checking email or something on my phone. I only took two exposures - this is my favorite and then I moved on. No confrontation, no worries of "what is that guy doing?" and a cute photograph in the end.

Love to see children enjoying books, but where were their parents? I know you are harmless but there are others who might not be. Joan
I had the same reaction as Joan. Love to see kids enjoying books but where are the parents? Betsey
That is so strange that I never thought "Where are the parents?" Really good point! Yikes, what is wrong with them?
