This week...

It's been warm enough to ditch the clothes,


but cold enough to bring 12 inches of snow.


Edy modeled Uncle Luke's cover-alls,


and learned to play the ukulele.


And finally, a Smith-style wrestling match ruined a perfectly good photo of Edy and I in the snow. (That's Luke smashing a snowball into the back of Dad's head.)


We are a very civilized family.

Sunny Days

We are finally having some good weather here in PG, which when I was growing up meant you went to the park and had a picnic. So, in honor of spring and my mom and her collapsible metal picnic basket, we Halls went to the park.






Elly was not impressed with the slides. Notice the look of sheer boredom on her face.
