And the living is hectic
And from Elizabeth, back in the Minnesota homeland, this exhausting report:We had the most amazing summer. The girls and I were outside nearly every minute, swimming, kayaking, canoeing, motorboating, horseback riding, frog/crayfish/minnow catching, grilling, swimming, camping, relaxing in the hammock, playing t-ball and softball, and of course, swimming. We found a fantastic beach about half an hour from the cabins we were renting and couldn’t get enough of it. Heradio stayed home a few of the weekends working on the house, but really enjoyed the cabin too. (His indoor bathroom needs were met and all was well.) The most amazing part is that we were out of town seven times and had beautiful weather each time. I finished typing that with some apprehension as the girls and I are going to camp on Lake Superior with my dad and Les and Mike this last weekend (our last summer fling), and now the weather gods will be angered and wreak havoc upon us. I don’t know how we will all adjust to sitting in school next week, but I started my teacher-speak meetings today and survived the rehashing of school improvement goals. Well, time for me to head to bed — I can paddle a canoe for four hours and run an outboard motor for two, but my tendonitis flares up at the mere sight of THE MOUSE. Luckily for me, my job consists mostly of blah-blah-blah the old fashioned way — by mouth. — Elizabeth
