Sylvia arrived home on Friday, which was a sunny and pleasant day. Spring arrived on Saturday, and with it falling snow and temperatures. I am not aware of any connection between the two events.
On Friday, Crotchety announced on his blog that our son, Bryant, had correctly identified the fact that he (Crotchety) has no belly button. Congratulations to Bryant. I hope he enjoys his prize.
Spring is certainly here. Robbins, gulls, starlings, grackles and even buzzards have returned to the neighborhood. The northern goshawk has left — evidently for parts north of here. (They don’t nest this far south.)
Water polo season is underway for Briana. The first regular season home game is tonight. Sylvia and I plan to be there so we can shout and go berserk for #7, who is our granddaughter.
Rebecca, I'm very proud of both of our sons. Water polo doesn't draw a lot of folks in from the community but the fan base is very loyal. I'm glad that the comments include the links. I frequently use them, both here and when reading other blogs.
Your son seems like quite the prodigy. 😉
Wow, water polo! I agree with Sharkbytes– here in Upstate NY, schools are jacking up taxes to pay for astroturf, while crying lack of teachers every fall… 🙁 But then again, I suppose grandparents need SOMETHING to holler at as their dear grandchildren play! 😀 Have a blast.
Thanks for including WordPress blogs Name/URL in your comments box! Nice. 😀
Vanilla, That's about the size of it.
Lin, They are the Falcons. The JV lost their game but the varsity won 9 to 1. Briana scored a couple of goals and had a few assists.
Shark, Most of the water polo action seems to be centered around Grand Rapids and Ann Arbor.
VanilaSeven, They are off to a good start with a win at home.
Coach Purses, Thanks. Do come back often — you are always welcome.
Since discovering your site last year has become one of my favorites!, the articles and tutorials have something that adds a little extra or they aproach in a diferent perspective
All the best for the Water polo team 🙂
I am still rather amazed that there are water polo teams when schools can hardly keep teachers. But it's pretty cool. I don't think any schools over here have that sport.
Glad Sylvia is home safe.
Oh, yea! Water polo season!! Good luck to the….the….uh….the TEAM! (What is their team name??) Go Briana!
We'll be waiting for results, Chuck.
That is to say, Things are back to normal in your bailiwick.
Go Briana!
