Warm Westerlies

Today was one of those perfect fall days with just perfect amounts of sunlight and humidity. I arrived home just before the sun disappeared behind the hills- just enough daylight for Tuey and I to run circles around the house and then collapse on the last of the green grass.

And For His Next Trick.....

....Seth takes a pillow in his mouth and tosses it into the air, much to the sheer delight of the crowd.

On Bread

Tua spent the afternoon at Nonna's where she assisted in the kneading of a fine loaf of bread. We even caught some of her commentary on tape. If only we all could find dough as fascinating.

Zoo VT

Vermont is about as well known for its zoological amusments as Kansas is for its coastline. We have no Serengeti upon which to Safari; we have no rainforest through which we might trek; we have no urban jungle with a large animal exhibit including, but not limited to, a bred pair of Panda.

In lieu of these, we have the Wellwood Orchards petting zoo, a small establishment on the outskirts of rural Weathersfield. Insides its confines are a small collection of wonderfully domesticated chickens, a drove of pygmy goats, and a herd of hare, all of which are enough to keep a two year old out of the realm of indifference for the better part of an hour. The following are a few shots of Tua as she ambled about the farmyard today.
