Over the River and Through the Woods


Today my dad, sister, and I are heading to Boston to visit my paternal grandparents! Both of my grandparents are almost 90 and are in amazing shape. They not only live on their own but they are constantly doing house projects. When I was there in the fall, he spent the weekend ripping up and then replacing his stone pathway that leads from the street to the house. Oh, he originally built his house with his own two hands (plumbing, electrical, etc!). I will take a picture of my grandfather's cellar...it is unbelievable. It is packed full of machines, tools, and thousands of nails (all caterogized in tin cans and recorded in a notebook!). I admire both of my grandparents tremdously and it is going to be hard being so far away from them.

That picture looks like me after a hard day at work (and sometimes while I'm working)...
