There is nothing touristy about this photo. It’s not the riverfront or the iconic blue bridge. It’s not the sculpted dragons over the entrance to the public gardens. It’s not any of the cool, vintage neon signs I shot downtown.
It’s just the photo I liked best from my day walking around La Crosse. A simple human expression hidden in plain sight for any passerby to witness and, most likely, relate to in some way (that may or may not be about a cat).
I miss my ____________.
A nicely spotted fragment of humanity.
I miss my cat too!
I thought that would resonate with people. For me, it’s my dog, but we all know the feeling.
