Slow Burn

If the children don’t grow up,
our bodies get bigger but our hearts get torn up.
We’re just a million little god’s causin’ rain storms
turnin’ every good thing to rust. – arcade fire

Good Morning! How are we all doing today? Have we put away Christmas and New Years and once again become productive members of society? Good for us!For myself I have to work my way back into it slowly, like climbing into a bath that was run too hot. Give me a few days and I’ll be back in the working state of mind. . . or. . . maybe not.

Yesterday we took advantage of the 40f day and went back out to “Smokey lake” which is our pet name for L. Columbia. I spent time annoying the kayak gods by paddling a WW boat with a Greenland Stick, while Mary and Gryphon roamed the banks. Then right before we left Gryphon and I went for a swim! I can hear grandmothers cringing everywhere!

By the way, remember that Basking Shark? Let’s go see one over at Adventurous Experiences on the Isle of Man, UK. Nice Video!

    Is that Gryphon? Too adorable.

    I’ve got the Send Them To Greenland fund calendar for 2005 and the December and January shots were both tykes in kayaks.

    Very cute.

    Hi Bonnie,

    Yeah, he was having a ball with that boat. He’d just sit and spin. :)
