Dad and son making pizzas

At wolf den outing for cub scouts. Had cooking lesson from instructors from Mercer County Community College. Learned about five tastes: sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and unami.

Papa Johns better watch out.

A night at the museum

Linda and I attended a dinner hosted by SunGard at the U of Penn museum of archeology and anthropology where we enjoyed the Egypt artifacts. Almost too cool not to touch.

Golfer

A pretty good swing but I have to admit that the form is more a baseball swing like his brothers and his father. Whatever gets the ball down the fairway (or over the fence) .

New Business Opportunity or New Toy

Actually, it was justified as a time-saver and indeed, it really moves across the ground.

Vincent was able to learn the operation in about 15 minutes so I may be able to sit on the porch with a glass of lemonade while he does the lawn. Now if I can get him to carry the weedwacker I will have it good.

King of Snow Mountain

One bright spot for all the snow we've received this year is the fun we've had climbing snow mountains created in shopping center parking lots. If the mountain climbers rate the best by how many peaks over 20,000 feet they have climbed, Vincent and I measure similar stature by how many snow mountains over 20 feet we have climbed. I think the current count may be 5 or 6 but that is no small feat for a little guy.

I know we are in for a climbing expedition when he wants to wear his boots for a trip to Lowes or Wegman's. Keep climbing toward your dreams.

Big winner for speed and Best in Show for design

Here is the result for the Pack 87 Pine Wood Derby. Vincent came away with two trophies, a modest one for 1st place in speed for his Tiger Cub den, and the one shown for being voted Best in Show for design. I admit I helped him with the speed aspect by polishing the axles and lubricating the wheels with graphite.
But the design was all his as was most of the construction, sanding, and painting. All those aesthetic things that is involved with design. I think he gets that from his mother while I provide the engineering side.
In all a great event for the kiddos executed in a great way by a caring Pack. Hat's off to Pack 87 and congratulations to Vincent!

Condo next to ours at OC, Md

Interesting condo in OC. This one is just north of ours and is a v-shaped footprint. The rachet shape allows most condos to have beach view and balconies. Very creative architecture.

Survivormen out on Sunday Adventure

Adventure, you ask? You should have seen the wild geese and other waterfowl we had to chase off the pier. Luckily I have taught Survivorboy how to chase away geese by imitating an even bigger, noisier, and angrier goose. Works every time.
