Autumn in New York

Rochester is so beautiful in the fall.  This is on our daily lunchtime walk around the campus.

Happy Birthday Chris

We had fun at the Del Mar beach but it was not one of the most successful for the fisherman. 

Coffee arriving for the fisher people

The catch

He also caught a very small Leopard shark.  As always, it was a very nice (and tasty) weekend in San Diego.  Having Nicole home was a pleasant surprise. 

Crazy Hair Day at School

Ben is getting nostalgic, already, about leaving Loyal Heights Elementary after 7 years (including pre-school.) He just had his last Spirit Week which ends with Crazy Hair Day and the Jogathon; an annual  fund raising benefit for the school. Ben ran 6 miles, and Liam about 3. Liam has lost both his front teeth. He looks quite adorable. The photos I took, however, were blurry.

On an aside. When I signed into the blog I somehow wound up at a review of the blogs I follow page, which included my defunct Baja trip blog. It has had over 2600 hits! and is still going strong. I guess Baja is a popular place to travel.

Success

Everyone caught at least one.

Fishing Weekend

Adam, Niko, and friends are here at the lake this weekend for their annual fishing trip.  They caught a couple salmon yesterday (one is in our freezer).  Today they went to the spot below but no luck so far.  They just went out again hoping for better luck at a different spot for the afternoon.
