I heard you were serving free vodka over here. Pass the Finlandia, please. A Music History student’s mother gives me Chopin vodka in a brown paper bag every Christmas. I love homeschooling moms!
You were missed!! How are things after the fall?
_________________________________________ Huck and Tom, that’s a pretty good summation of the two of them. I’m doing OK–I spent that last few weeks involved with Day Camp, so my “rest” wasn’t much of a rest. But I’m recovering. ~W
Love it. I remember having forts in our front yard –there were humongous hedges that completely hid the yard from the street — we played in there all the time. Great memories.
_________________________________________ I love forts, I can’t help myself. The boy was completely not capable of building one, for some reason. So, I went to town. I might go hang out in there tomorrow. You know, with a good book and bug spray. ~W
Oh…that totally beats building a fort with the kitchen chairs and a sheet! Well…unless it’s raining I suppose.
_________________________________________ Yeah, I’ve built both kinds. What is it about tents and forts? We crave shelter, I think. Spaces of our own. ~W
Mary’s right- your baby is growing up. Pretty soon he’ll smell like a teenager. He still looks more beautiful than handsome, though. Where did you find the Norman Rockwell kid? The two of them work well together in this dreamy fort.

Love the aerial shots

A lot of fun, I think. At one point I heard, “I could stay here all day!” And they pretty much did. ~W

Oh, man… we are in a serious Fort Phase over here, too.
You were indeed missed. Welcome back.

Forts are fun! We used to like to make ours inside(to my mom’s distress) because there were no bugs!
