Last week our friend Susan came up to see the Olympics with us! We woke up early, drove up to Vancouver, perused the scene, saw the women’s curling event, and drove home so we could go to work the next day. Here are the pictures.
We waited in a HUGE line for about an hour to [...]

The compost we started a year and a half ago actually looks like compost! The things [...]
