Biking Prelude #1

As some of you know, Jonathan and I and some guys from church biked to Ohiopyle last weekend.

Ahh, Spring. The Season of Bandaids

Combine shorts/shortsleeves with pricker bushes and concrete and childhood exploration. Jonathan takes care of himself now, and Noah does sometimes, but I've been doing lots of bandaging for Faith. She's pretty good about leaving them on, but when they fall off she is insistent... (More)

Sockdolager: A Knock-Down Blow
