A New Convert


Our son Neil showed up yesterday for a brief weekend visit and immediately took to our Northwoods Winter lifestyle. We dressed him up in a modern version of the "voyageur" fashion so popular among French trappers in the 18th century and, voila, a new north country woodsman. Unfortunately he fagged out after a relatively short walk in snowshoes, and he appears to think it's rather cold here. The amount of snow came as a shock as well. We're bundling him back to Seattle on Monday before the next snow storm which is expected for Tuesday and Wednesday.

Does your camera add 30lbs?

Actually it tends to make people look slimmer by about 40 pounds.
