Max's first fish!
our humble abode..


A nice quite moment... one of the few!

OK Karen, if there is one thing my upbringing has taught me…it’s to respond to guilt.
So, a quick update on our summer activities. In addition to all types of camps, one of the major events this summer was camping at Lake Opinicon in Ontario Canada with our good friends the Zahms. So let me try to paint a picture for you…six kids, five adults all nestled (read: crammed) in a 500sqft cabin. Rain, black flies the size of my fist, late (really late) bed times and early (very early) mornings were the norm for the week. The Four Season’s be dammed…how I love camping!
All kidding aside, we had a super time. The lake was pristine, teeming with fish, and all other types of flora and fauna. One of our favorite sounds was the loons calling during the night…just fantastic. Being away from the television, and spending time bonding as a family and with our friends was a real treat.

Now, next week Jen and the kids are headed to Rochester to visit with her family and Max will attend a week long sailing camp at the Rochester Yacht Club. I have my fingers crosses that Max will take to sailing and sail boat racing! Jen’s father is all ready to purchase an Optimist dingy for him so one day he can bring the America’s cup back to the US!
