What About Socialization?

When we were in Ashland at Laura & Nick's place last week, I wandered into the living room one morning to see this delightful sight. Noah, Ben, and Blake were relaxing together, playing a game of Sorry! They were enjoying the game and having a good time together. I thought it was especially cool because of their differing ages: 6, 15, and 26. Although this isn't unusual for a bunch of unschoolers, it seemed like a good opportunity to capture a few sweet photos.

A Little More Camano Island Fun

Camano Island Fun

We enjoyed a great week of camping with friends on Camano Island late last month. While at the beach one day, the kids noticed a bunch of logs that seemed to offer some promising fun. These photos show how their adventure unfolded.

Patty Pan Girl

We found these two patty pan squash in the garden today. We thought it was funny to find two totally different squashes from the same plant. They seemed to fit right together.

Voila! Patty pan girl.

Colorful Harvest

Here's a little glimpse of today's harvest. I thought it looked so colorful all gathered together in this basket. We've got blueberries, plums, parsley, a yellow patty pan squash, a tomato, and two kinds of pole beans.

Saturday Morning Ride to the Farmers Market

I enjoyed a nice morning ride to the farmers market today. I picked up a whole lot of fruit: a yellow watermelon, two boxes of cherries, and a box each of apples, apricots, and peaches.
