January Pictures

Yeah, I'm not so good at this blogging thing. I'm also not so good at taking a picture every day like Michael, but I'm pretending reasonably well. I ran out of room on my free flickr account, so while I'm debating whether to actually pay for more, I'll post what I have here. These are from a few weeks ago, because last week I got kind of lazy. Whoops.


January 9: This is the railroad bridge over the Connecticut River, which is part of the walking/running (and this time of year, skiing) trail in our part of MA. It was a pretty day, so I stopped to take a few shots on my way to the grocery store. Good times.

January 10: I take a lot of pictures up at the Mt. Tom State Reservation, since it's about a ten minute walk from my front door. This is the stream leading away from Lake Bray. It's fun to get shots of it at all different levels of frozen.

January 11: Another in my "photos while driving" series. Whenever Lisa sees these, she makes the "what were you thinking?" face. I'm careful - I swear!

January 11: Claire came to visit for a few days, which was great. I then proceeded to take a series of her with Lisa wandering about in the background. You can see how outings with the three of us tend to go. On this particular day, I was showing Claire around Smith (that's the library back there on the left), and Lisa was in the middle of a long phone call with Jenniffer.

January 13: We stopped to look at dinosaur tracks and the river about two miles up from the house. Claire's not making a silly face in this one, which is kind of shocking.



January 14: The last night Claire was here, she made us dinner. This is why she wins.


January 15: Gus is cute, even when he's under the kitchen table pretending he's not begging.


January 16: Pen and paper, all ready to take notes while Evan critiques my writing. I just realized that I didn't turn this picture before I uploaded it, but I'm not going back now. Just turn your head to the left.


January 17: A year later, Lisa finally designed and ordered her special Converse. I got gift certificates for her and the sis for Christmas '06. Pretty sure the sis has yet to order hers. Lisa's are extra cute and have her name on the back, just in case she forgets who she is.

I have a few more pictures from the latest munchkin visit, but I'll save those for their own special post. Because he's adorable like that.
