Greetings From Sunny Montreal

It was 6 degs yesterday morning when I snapped this shot of our hotel. What was I thinking….. Montreal in Feb?!

But we’ve had a great time. Just cool to hang with the kids in a foreign land. They both tried snails one night, Charlotte actually ate it.

We’re on the train home now. A long ride, but kind of an adventure in itself. really beautiful, especially along Lake Champlain.

Lisman on WSJ.com

The Wall St Journal digital edition did a story about the folks that go to see the Macy’s floats being inflated. Lisman has a couple soundbites, the only bites, and the kids are in the shot.

Frito

We’re getting a dog. He’s a stray, 9 mos old. Mix of Whippet and more…. probably some kinda bull terrier in there. We’ll get him on Sat morn from a nearby shelter.

Remember This?

Look at this!

Penn State Thon Comes to my Block

She didn’t know UncleLar. She mentioned she wasn’t 21 yet. I’m not sure what that has to do with it…

Father’s Day

Spent the day at our local minor league stadium.  Charlotte’s softball teamed was honored before the game, accompanying the home team as the players were announced.  Everybody had a good, long day at the park.  Lex got a foul ball, and all kids got to run the bases and play catch in the outfield after the game.

Piano Duet

Lex and Charlotte started piano lessons last October. They had a little recital today. I gotta say, I’m impressed by how much they’ve achieved. Hope you like it.

Beer Drinking Pigs of St. Croix

Not us, we’re drinking rum.  No, at the Dominiom Club in St. Croix’s rainforest, today we had the highlight of our trip so far.  We bought a couple beers for a couple big pigs.

Merry Christmas To All…..

and to all a digital version of our Xmas card. You’ll be getting a hard copy someday, but don’t hold your breath, it won’t be real soon.

The kids made the gingerbread houses.
