Since summer's almost over I thought I should at least make an attempt to post pictures from some of our adventuring. Even if they aren't exactly what you'd call recent.
Grandpa Reintjes came up for a good long visit and while we spent most of the time with him frolicking in the river and burning scrap wood in our fire pit we also snuck in a trip to Fort Ticonderoga on his last day. The fort itself was, well, underwhelming. It was fun to visit and they had a few reenactors on hand but overall it was certainly not worth the price of admission. Oh well. The gardens were pretty. And there were two cows so the children satisfied.
While we were there sitting by Lake Champlain Margaret and John invented a game in which they were each royalty who had been turned into statues by some evil witch and then had to be rescued. By each other. But they were both statues. I suppose it was worth the whole trip just watching them try to work through that pickle. Especially watching Margaret pretending, ever so gracefully, to be a statue of a princess :)
