How Did the Mountain Biker get on the ground?

Owen tries to drive Mom’s scooter to pick apples…

Annika and Oliver

Oliver and Annika with Owen

Kelly and Frank with “who’s that under the hood?”

Once Annika and

Oliver’s love took root in

them, we had mini

SCOTTI!

Clement Clarke Moore named two reindeers “thunder and lightning.”

What did Kelly and Frank name their new nomad?

Definition #304 August

Owen mimics his Mom; grabs her eyeglasses, and grins. He took 35 years to study this look!

Owen’s Bday: 8/27

Arthur’s Bday: 8/23

Parent’s Anniversary: 8/17

I knew when surgery was scheduled for 8/17 that it would be blessed by my ancestors.

August always brought new beginnings:

school openings, Fall, school assignments, family gatherings…

Today marks a new foot for me;

perhaps I will not “put it in my mouth”any time soon.

Perhaps it’s a discrete foot!

August’s fruit!

Definition #285 Blowing Bubbles

In the evening,

on the deck in Austerlitz,

we discovered

flowing gigantic bubbles.

The iPhone video

 in slow motion,

was edited

in iMovie and the music of Enya

added to the background.

Thank you Don, Annika and Owen

for the bubble formula.

Definition #201 Sticking out my tongue

Annika celebrates her tricks on a two-wheeler:
so do Owen and Oliver

balance and speed and

steering and braking and weaves

 ‘tween brother and dad

it appears that tongue protrusion when concentrating is hard-wired into our nervous systems. It is an entirely benign condition of those who are focusing their attention.

Einstein’s tongue

stronger than water

is blood: grapes on the vine: flow

to be fine red wine!

Definition #158 Epoch Party

get to choose who to love-who

to adore-forgive
