Mattress fun

Here’s how we spent part of our day.


No we are not moving the bed to the back deck. Well, not to sleep on.


Incoming.


And outgoing!


I love my Subu. It great for hauling old beds to the dump.

Trick r treat 

Ninga aka JMan 


I’ve fallen and I can’t reach my candy.


Text you later, right now I’m working the street!

Happy Anniversary 

Happy Anniversary to my (much better) 1/2. Best friend, life partner, right hand person and you always have my corner. I’d (we’d) be lost without you. 


Love you!

Evening at the rink

While GMan and Jess were working on high school applications JMan and I went to the roller rink.

Actually JMan perfered 2 wheel and opted for a scooter.


But first a little protein to take the edge off.


0+ anyone?

Fall tradition

We made it up to Russell Orchards in Ipswich this year for the first time in a while. Years ago I’d be up and around there all the time and Jess and I visited quit often.


Fall pickings.


Pumpkins of all sizes.


No comment on this one, but I’ll admit it was my idea!


The other animals.

Saying this pig is big is an understatement. Anyone for some bacon?

Uniturkey.


Heehaw.

These lads will be getting nervous in a month or so.

The boys feeding a duck.


Apply anyone?

No trip to a farm is not complete without the silly “sit on the old tractor photos”.


Green Acres indeed….moving on. 


It a busy place on the weekend but worth a visit.

Castle Hill

Castle Hill is one of my most favorite place on the north shore. I spend years coming up to Cranes Beach, visiting the house or taking some event. Just walking down the garden to the beach is worth the visit. Since we were just down the road we decided to once again check out the grand old estate.


The downstairs of the house was open so we did a quick tour. The grand stair case is quite grand. They (or should I say we) don’t build them like they used to.


The garden leading to the beach is worth the walk for exercise and the views.

JMan hoping for a magical ride.


The boys take in a game of chess.


The house on the hill….yes, that blue dot is Jess.


And she caught up to me.


And a little further down……


And finally the end!


If you are ever up this way and like cool old houses you’ll have to visit Castle Hill.
