I think I heard a collective sight when I put pen to paper this am!
As we’d say in Ireland….that’s done and dusted. Now the big question is who will we end up with for the 4 year.
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.
Fall = Apple Picking
If you live or lived in New England you probably went picking apples in the fall.
GMan reaching for that perfect apple.
Not to be out done by his older brother….
Crank er up and we’ll go for a spin.
GMans B-Day
Today is GMans b-day. He started the day off with a few rounds of Tanki and Jess sprinkled him with some confetti.
The boys came over and started out playing Pokémon at the house.
And a little at Faneuil Hall.
And at Custom House.
In between they got a little hang time!
Cool and the gang at Durgin Park.
The corn bread has not changed much since the last time I was here, or the first time for that matter.
The birthday boy. Go here for the happy birthday song by the Durgin staff and patrons. Yes, he was sufficiently embarrassed!
Reflections of the cool birthday boy.
Tour guide.
Yup, more Pokémon.
The boys again at Boston Harbor.
JMan – 1st day
Here’s JMan on the way out the door to 3rd grade.
GMan – First day of 8th grade
Here’s GMan on the way out the door this am. First day of 8th grade.
Cape Cod – Day 6
This sure beats cold pizza and warm beer for breakfast! Actually it was a mid morning snack for the rest of the family yesterday morning while I was slogging away at case work and fielding roll over calls! No, I can’t activate your product, or transfer to someone who can but good luck with that one…..sur.
Nothing like some Salt Water Taffy for the ride home.
Taffy in all manner of flavor. I think they have 25 to choose from.
You simply cannot spend a week on Cape Cod without going to an amusement arcade.
Jess and GMan waiting for tickets to appear.
GMan discovered this one on the bottom….pre filet and all.
And of course Pokesomethingorother!
Zero traffic on the Sagamore Bridge. Well….one car, but who counting.
Back in the homestead. We all had a great time on the Cape.
