DisneyWorld, January 2011

 
But, Landon, this is the Happiest Place in the World!
It was Adam's marathon stop to say hi to family fans.
The noise from the crowd frightened Baby Landon.

Landon Goes to Barnes & Noble


We took Landon to Barnes & Noble and turned him loose in the toddler books area.
 This is how he sees things in his world.
 
 

Brotherly Love

 
The hand signals directed at each other tell the story.

White Dining

We are the children of Norwegian immigrants
so it was a page-turner when we visited the "homeland" in 2009.
One of our family myths is that all Norwegian food
is white...lefse, lutefisk, cod, potatoes, etc.
Not true, of course. We were greeted with colorful smorgasbords
every day of our tour...but just for the fun of it,
I photographed this table setting with white food
confiscated from the serving board.

Water World

 Blue skies overhead, the surf rises and
I park at the Venice jetty to watch surfers
prepare to ride.
Now that I no longer live in Venice,
this unknown boarder is a symbol of my
once-watery world of rocks and waves.
 
 
On  a brighter day, the waves crash against the rocks
while my thoughts turn to the loss of our
beloved pastor who died of leukemia.

First Swing


In 2011, Landon's dad ran a full marathon at Disneyworld.
 After that, we came home to Venice, Florida
and went to Maxinne Barret park for a swing.

Testing first post....


What a beautiful face...Landon lights up my world.
I'm here testing the design of this blog...
