Hike 2

Another walk in the woods, this time with some nice Boston harbor views.

Hike 1

We've gotten out a few times since getting back to Boston. Here is a bit from one of our daytrips. The Middlesex Fells (one of our favorites).


Mmmm, dessert.

Sunscreening

Nothing makes a simple task an adventure quite like a two-year old.

From Aug.6:

End of summer

Sam is back in school and so summer is at an end.




But we'll pay tribute to the great times and trips we had with a series of videos over the next few days.

We'll start with dinner in Eberstadt.

2nd Birthday - Part Two

...and now endlessness has a middle.


You will notice that Sam's silly parents got him a broom and a watering can for his birthday. Never too early to get to work.

2nd Birthday

We have some belated memories from Sam's 2nd Birthday to post. Here is Part One - 'Endlessness has a Beginning.'

Karlsruhe, Stuttgart, Horsy.

These are a few shots from our swanky digs at ZKM (Zentrum für Kunst & Medien) Karlsruhe where we were rehearsing music and developing electronics for the opera. Fancy and artsy and electronic-ky. You can see the restaurant where we would often grab some food/coffee/etc. and where Samuel loved to run around amidst the bikers and pedestrians.



And then here we are at the decidedly analog castle in Stuttgart.


Samuel likes wandering around here too, and has been practicing going up stairs "grown-up" style without hands.



Samuel's favorite activity is going to see the "horsies", which he indicates by grabbing your hand and with a rather uncanny sense of direction sets off immediately in the right direction calling "Horsy! Horsy!"


The little boy is happily visiting his Eberstadt family while we are in final rehearsals for the opera (which goes up this weekend). We're looking forward to seeing Sam on Friday!

By the way here is our backdoor at the castle:


Ok. Bye for now. ("Bye Bye." says Sam)
