Rosemary Reading

Rosemary is just starting to figure out the reading thing. 

To help her along, I made a four-page, five-word book that recounts one of our frequent conversations.

Redwoods

We took the kids back to Portola Redwoods State Park.

This time, all five of us spent the night in the tent -- a first.

Did the kids sleep well?  No they did not.  But we survived, and had a marvelous time.

More camping pictures are here.

The Grandparents Keithley

We had a wonderful and often scenic visit with the Grandparents Keithley this week.

We spent a day at San Mateo's Central Park, visiting the Japanese Garden and having a picnic.

We also visited Coyote Point, which was fun until Rosemary sliced her foot open on a sharp shell (about ten minutes after this photo was taken).

More pictures from their trip are here.
