Inherited SnowBlower

I've been very thankful that I inherited this fabulous snowblower from my father-in-law. And with a few neighbours who don't have one, I've been able to help out.

Off-Roading: "Follow the Big Rig"

With a couple of snow storms every month, more and more people are trying out this new sport.

"Deep Thought"

Elizabeth engaged in deep thought; she does this a lot.

Oma's Birthday Surprise Lunch

A wonderful Surprise. And Aaron came a few minutes later.

Battle Short Concentration

Micah has this amazing ability to engage in extreme concentration. Every part of his being and body gets involved.

A look of satisfaction on a job well done

Sad Faces - Life Trophies

Both Elizabeth and Micah got black eyes around the same time in different situations.

Face Testing

Every now and then a person has to do a check of how his face is working.

Take a Close Look

Jean and I went to Pittsfield, MA, last week. On the way we went through part of Albany, NY, and there I noticed this house. What caught my eye was the brick work.

What's Going On?

It's hard to believe that I haven't posted a thing here since December '07.
What's it going to take?

"Early Day Present"

In our family it's not possible to wait until the appointed present opening time. So we've adopted the "Early Day Present" practice.

Here Aaron and Micah are enjoying a massive crane on Dec 22!!

I'm not sure who enjoyed the crane more, Micah or Aaron his dad.

On those cold, wintry days, a cat just has to find a nice, snuggly warm spot.

A Real Star

A nice moment during Micah's Christmas program at the Kingston Christian School. Yes, Virginia, there really is a Saviour, He is Christ the Lord.

Happy Birthday

A very cool person I know is celebrating her birthday today!!!

Happy Birthday, Thelma. God bless you.

Here's looking at You!

Canada's Largest Theatre Organ -- In Kingston, Ontario

Jean and I went to a concert last night featuring Lance Luce (http://www.lanceluce.com/) playing Canada's Largest Theatre Organ (yes, kiddies, it's right here in Kingston, Ontario (http://www.ktos.ca/about.html). Both photos taken with my cell phone - not ideal -but "you get the picture").

Fall Vacation in Letchworth State Park

Letchworth State Park: here are just a few shots of the various falls and sites.

To properly explore this area, you'll need a week or more.

We spent a week there with John and Grace M. in mid-October.

What's this now?

If you check Aaron's blog you'll see the photo that Meghan took. I'm just taking her taking the shot.

It's a bit of a walk from parking lot to beach. But with Micah and Elizabeth labouring with the cooler, Oma carrying something and Aaron bravely leading the way, we manage.

On the Ferry to Wolfe Island

Psalm 23

Elizabeth's Stay with Oma & Opa

Elizabeth is a helper. Here she's learning the art of "weeding" Oma's flower garden

Elizabeth Jean and Jean Kathleen soaking their "hot and tired feet" (as Elizabeth puts it),

Last night at the park

Elizabeth loves fruit. We had to cart in extra shipments of peaches and especially tangerines --they're easy to peal, and she discovered that most of them have 10 pieces (an amount that she verifies each time).
