Rainy Day and First Grade

Today is the first day of school.  Hurray!  A week ago Charlie couldn't wait to go.  A few days ago he said he didn't want to go to any grade, ever.  But this morning he seemed happy to go - and I was happy to see him go.  The pre - school jitters has put him in quite a mood.  Sure hope Mean Mulkeen makes a mean first day!

p.s. Morton Salt?

One More Thing

A branch. Leftover. From yesterday.

p.s. Thanks Irene

Clean Up

The Aftermath

The Yard and Surrounding Areas

Earlier this morning Rudy and I took a quick walk to Grandma's house...

A Hike in the Heights

We decided to go for a walk.  Afterwards we decided it was too dangerous to do so...  High winds, sea spray, downed trees, brave cormorants diving into the high gray sea below, fallen flag poles, dumb young swimmers showing off to many onlookers, and a Channel 7 Boston reporter.

The World is His Toilet

With branches down everywhere...the world is his toilet.
