Ducky Day
Today was one of those quietly wonderful days that aren’t exciting in the sense that you find yourself thrilled at every moment, but that at the end of the day you look back and suddenly realize that you’ve had an excellent day indeed. Today I went to the zoo as usual, had fish tacos for…

This is mostly a placeholder to let you know I uploaded photos to the photo blog from the past couple of weeks. I’ll write about this weekend later today when I have time, but for now you can see the pictures (with captions)!

Marching on
It feels as if this year is going by so quickly. Already we’re a week into March and I’m making summer plans and doing my spring cleaning. Last week J and I bought a new camera, a nice shiny Nikon, and I’ve been practicing with it ever since. What this means is that I now…

Another Erdman Weekend
This weekend I spent most of four days on the north shore with about 30 high school students on a youth retreat. I came home exhausted and in serious need of a shower, but it was a great weekend and completely worth it. Highlights included a high ropes course (for which I took photos from…

The Interloper…
Just a quick photo I took tonight of The Interloper. He’s fascinated by my camera and won’t let me take many photos without wanting to put his nose on the lens… Cute, though. Now that our company is gone, I should be able to get him scheduled for all of his vet appointments and make…

Tiny sea life
Today was a nice, quiet day that we spent (mostly) at the beach. I took some photos that will get uploaded later, but in the meantime, I wanted to show you the tiny hermit crab I found. I love how colorful he is, and that his eyes are the width of the ridges of my…
