Oh, OK, OK, I just had to try to get this one for you.

I spent one entire summer about 7-8 years ago building the surround around my 10X10 patio out of one of those Quikrete paver forms. I'd made some stencils to do some stencilled greeting cards some years earlier. The interiors of those stencils were just hanging out, so I grabbed them and pressed them into the pavers as the concrete hardened.

This is a really bad photo of my purposefully subtle memories of my 10-yr-gone Sergio, Champion Standard Poodle, little pussy cat, and a poodle (now-14YO-Standard Poodle) paw imprint in a small grouping. It's just one of those little things you want to keep to yourself so you can sit there on the wood step/decking back into the house on a Saturday morning and sink into those wonderful memories you have of such wonderful pets, if you know what I mean. Not sure anyone can appreciate what might on the surface appear to be "wallowing," if you will. But "wallowing" isn't something you do over wonderful memories. I delight in those times I can take a moment to sit there with them.

See if you can find the impressions herewith. I tried flash, btw, and no weird lighting as is utilized, but the light needs to come from the side in order to "catch" the image.
