I sat with family at a wonderful Thanksgiving.
I sat late at night reading to an aged, dying family member. She passed twelve hours later.
I sat at the wedding of a couple from church.
I hardly know what to say.

Halloween was fun this year. We did our usual run up to Vadnais Heights, where the fire department has food and treats and clowns (not every day… just Halloween), and then we go through one of the neighborhoods there. Anna was a princess. Kenny was columbian coffee. Henry and Will were bears monkeys. But Jack, well, he stole the show as Groucho Marx’s Professor Wagstaff from Horse Feathers.
No, it’s not a real cigar. It’s a cinnamon stick.




Yes, that’s Jack making the clown laugh.

Snapshots never really do justice to how pretty something like this is. Tiny whispers of snow which soon emboldened themselves into big fluffy flakes. Peaceful and dreamy. Twenty minutes later it was bright and sunny. I love having an office window. :)
Beautiful *Lord of the Rings* characters each made with only one sheet of uncut paper. Wow.
