B in Alaska

It was torture to be without a camera while B was away. It was also difficult to be without him. It was a lonely and long week for all of us. I got a good taste of life as a single parent - ew.

We did do some fun things though.

We got a very cool invite to do some swimming with friends in Glastonbury at an awesome spot. (Thanks for the photos, Debbie.)

We spent some time with Nagy Papa. He joined us one night for Chinese food and a Steel Drum Band performance at the Torrington Public Library, which was excellent. The guys who did it not only performed but informed, as well. Great show.

R had tennis lessons every day at 8 am. Yeah, that's 8 am.

We attended three birthday parties, the last of which B joined us for. His flight was delayed for a whole day since they were fogged in, or he could've attended two.

Yes, he had an incredibly amazing time. Check out his photos by clicking on the link on the right. In the meantime, here's a clue:
Two hundred and sixty pounds. Getting that thing in was a group effort, but I understand that Matt did most of the work.

And now I have 100 pounds of halibut in my freezer, a fish which is relatively high in mercury and that we shouldn't eat more than once a month. Whoever you are, next time you see us, expect to get some fish!
