Comments on photo: Together in our hearts About: "Together in our hearts," photo by Melissa Taylor To ColumbiaMagazine.com: Melissa, of all the photos that I see on CM this one has really made me stop and think.

The morning was really foggy and cool. I hollered and told Neal to get up, "cause were burning daylight". He didn't want to get up, but after some loud and graphic coaxing, and throwing a few rocks at his tent; he started packing up his gear. It was Sunday June 3rd and I was a man on a mission.
