Tricks and Treats 2020

 Cleopatra, Covid and Bears...oh my. 

She called herself Cleopatra the Queen of Quarantine


I knew I had seen that pose before!!

Thank goodness for these two sweet friends of Viv's...
they've kept each other sane and laughing during this crazy time!
After our 2020 version of trick or treating, the girls came back to Pinchot for a firepit and sleepover...
turns out they got quite a bear show at 3:00am
From the living room the girls watched two bears climb
 the tree to get to the roof of the house...
you can see their claws marks on the bark...
...then they watched both bears try to climb in the
 hammock but fall out of the bottom of it...
...and then climb in and out of the kayaks....
...a few hours later as Viv and I were driving back onto Pinchot, we saw this...


Tricks and treats...what more can I say??

Florida Farewell

Image
Our last sunset in Florida didn't disappoint.  Honestly, it wasn't an emotional farewell though.  I always felt like our time in Florida was fleeting. As a family, we transitioned the kids in and out of the house over summers, and in and out again. In two short years we transitioned through different schools and jobs and friends. These last two years especially, I felt like a transient. Never quite settled.  Now, it's time to settle. I'd like to plant some roots, even if they aren't deep and forever at our next assignment. Like us, they just need to be strong for the season.  Eglin AFB, Florida  1 June 2023

Knoxville TN

AmeriCorps and the real world called.   The day after we got back home from Colorado, Maxwell was off. It should've been two days after we got home, but we missed our original flight and...anyhow.  On that Tuesday morning, Matt and Henry went to work, and Maxwell, Viv and I loaded up the U-Haul and headed to Knoxville. Viv was so excited to be a part of this moving crew...she was always in school when he left for Lyco so this was her first official move-in. There was a lot of driving, a lot of sweat, and (as always) some tears, but the three of us got it done!  Go answer that call, Moose. Go out and do great things!! Tennessee River Line Project  Day 1!
