...happy birthday!

Dave hasn't changed much in 35 years...



Cross-country skiing, dinner, and a rodeo. Happy 35th Birthday babe!

...here are two poems by Uncle Vic

Loons Tunes

We're going to tell you a tune
A tune about a loon
That we saw as we stood
Under the Arctic moon

He dives for fish they say
Where in the deeps they lay
He swims upon the water blue
Under the skies of gray


Untitled

Look in the cradle
Look in the chair
Look in the playpen
It's playing there

It don't live in a stable
Its mother ain't a mare
The little thing's named Katie
And it has no hair

Vic wrote these poems when he was a teenager living at the lodge in Canada for the summer.

...the little tyke is a pro at international travel

This is the extent of our pics from our trip to Canada:







Five photos total. But at least we caught a snapshot of Dave's huge fish. That brave little guppy was the same size as the lure. Ben could've eaten him for breakfast and still been hungry.

...he's a Mormon boy for sure

Onesies sportin' a tie are a hit with the ladies.



We made Ben stay in his church clothes on our Sunday drive up to Smith and Morehouse. He's keepin' us classy.
