Something about basketball courts reminds me of growing up in my little hometown. Maybe it's the hours my best friend and I spent perfecting our rollerskating skills on the smooth surface. Maybe it's watching the neighborhood boys climb to the tops of the baskets because they could. Whatever the reason, I think of this as I perfect my free throws still! I love the heavy contrast on this shot.
We were at Troy's BBQ today and there was a NCAA game on (Baylor and I can't remember who else) and it made me feel the same way, only I played school ball in Jr High and HS and I started to really miss it. I remember hours and hours at practice in the wind in Jr high cause we didn't have an indoor gym. My hands were always black and chapped. I temember playing anywhere I could: playgrounds, neighborhood parks, the church- any chance I could. I miss it a lot these days.
