Lazy Me

I've been a little lazy about blogging lately. Mostly because I've spent the past two weekends here:



Looking at this view:



And enjoying the kids doing stuff like this:



And this:



And this:



This is Camp. A family cottage on Lake Champlain where we spend as much time as possible in the summer. Last weekend, we didn't have cable or internet out there. A liberating weekend it was. We taught the kids how to play euchre, walked the dogs, and set up the badminton court.

This weekend, cable was installed, so the kids watched a little morning TV. Nothing more. No internet, but [unfortunately] we're trying to get it running so we can [fortunately] work out there during the week. The yin and the yang of internet service.

This weekend: Our first chicken BBQ with the in-laws, more euchre, more badminton, checkers, UNO, and a little rock painting. I also finished a book and started another. The dogs and I got another morning walk. Thing is, when you spend a weekend like this, it's hard to think of anything interesting to blog about. My mind isn't racing, and the only thing that fires up is the grill or a bonfire on the beach. So it may be a slow e-summer. Nice and slow...

  2. That's what summer's about!
    We just got back from a week in the Alaskan hinterlands, and were completely surprised to find out governonr Palin resigned while we were gone -- maybe need to go camping more often...
