probably, but not likely: Saturday outing
http://probablybutnot.blogspot.com/2012/08/sunday-outing.html
Probably, but not likely. Monday, August 20, 2012. Once again the call of older British cars, this time in Niagara-on-the-lake. I went for the chance of a lunch out, which I got, and an opportunity to wander the town. We ate lunch in the theatre cafe and walked the few blocks into the centre of town. We stepped into a few of the stores but found like I did on holiday that the chance of actually finding something new or unique is gone. Starbucks fitting nicely into the streetscape in a period building.

probably, but not likely: A tale
http://probablybutnot.blogspot.com/2012/10/a-tale.html
Probably, but not likely. Tuesday, October 16, 2012. I was out today with my camera in search of red maples. A remark about their absence in some of my other photos set me on my mission. While wandering my neighbourhood I stopped at a house to take a photo and noticed two older woman talking at the side door. I politely asked the homeowner if she minded me taking a picture of her tree. No problem she said. Helen remembers shopping for it and how thrilled both sides were when it was presented. When I told...

Coopers Unlimited: Last Week of Summer
http://texascoopers.blogspot.com/2015/08/last-week-of-summer.html
Thursday, August 13, 2015. Last Week of Summer. Monday we went hiking on one of my favorite running trails. It was a gorgeous hike and we were having a good time (we saw a banana slug! After hiking we went swimming with some friends and then called it a day. Tuesday we went to see a dollar movie in the morning (horrible movie, but the kids loved it and we got to sit in some great recliner seats! Dancing to the entrance. Sitting at the entrance with a giant party-hatted polar bear (and a sleeping Jacob).

Did you have a highlight and a 'lowlight' of this past year? My highlight was our family trip to the Pacific Northwest. 160;My lowlight was of my mother's illness and ultimate death. From Lou Gehrig's disease. . Now to some truly random thoughts from this week. 160;This poor guy had one ear that looked like a Christmas tree. . Next came t...

Coopers Unlimited: A Piano! Finally!
http://texascoopers.blogspot.com/2015/05/a-piano-finally.html
Monday, May 11, 2015. While we were separated from our piano Joseph's mom sent a great little Casio keyboard that was perfect for us. The keys were weighted, it had pedals, and the volume control and headphones option were great for all the apartments we lived in. Plus it was like a million times easier to move than a real piano. Now we are a little more settled so we were finally able to start looking for a new piano! El is (obviously) enjoying it. She also enjoys being the center of attention. We got a...

Coopers Unlimited: January 2015
http://texascoopers.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 31, 2015. Elinor has a bit of a unicorn obsession. She has a unicorn castle with five plush unicorns that live within. She has a walking unicorn with a light-up horn that makes magical sparkly sounds. Her pillow proudly sports a gaudy (Mama-made) unicorn pillowcase. And yes, she even has a ceramic unicorn. I'm sure a collaboration with Vladimir and his collection would be a wondrous thing for her. Anyhow, we headed back to the racks and she immediately chose this one:. And just this mor...

Coopers Unlimited: March 2015
http://texascoopers.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 12, 2015. Today was a busy time. We'd been babying a line of potted vegetable plants for the last couple of weeks, bringing them inside each night, waiting for the weather to be warm enough for them to live outside. I mostly just got fed up with shuttling them in and out everyday, but the weather is pretty warm now so we decided to go ahead and plant them today. After the big kids got home from school we worked together to put those plants in the ground. El digging, Caleb planting. The in...
