School and Work Cancelled Due to Ice

Icy in Louisiana

Around here, it isn't often cold enough for snow and ice. When it happens, you should enjoy it.

Jenny's Grandfather

We were in Houston on Friday and Saturday. Jenny's grandfather was visiting from Venezuela, so we went to see him. It was the first time Mariana and I had met him. The photo above has four generations in it, similar to this photo.

Stepback Cupboard - In Progress

I am almost done building a stepback cupboard out of pine. I already made the mouldings, but I still need to add them. Then put on the back and a finish. This will be painted, which is a good thing, with all the mismatched grain on this thing.

Mariana's Woodshop

Here are a few photos from our woodshop time this past week. Above, Mariana is learning to use her new saw. Below, she is excited about the model tarantula we are putting together.

Bunch of Birds

Some kayaking photos from last weekend. This was the first time I took photos of a hawk from the kayak!
