Superb Equipment

Yesterday we found ourselves one mile from Brigham Young's birth place so we took this picture of Bruce and Beckett next to their Great-Great and Great-Great-Great Grandfather's monument. This is coincidentally the most descriptive monument ever: Brigham Young. Born on this spot. 1801. A man of much courage and superb equipment.

Kayaking Headstand

Yesterday we were kayaking to a very cool lake, Lake Sadagwa. The lake had a huge floating island in it with very interesting vegetation and many natural canals we paddled through and explored. It was fascinating. Anyway on the way back across the lake I told Beckett that some day he could be like Aunt Allisa and do a headstand in the kayak. To my great surprise he started trying right then and there. Before I knew it, I had a head-standing boy in the front of my kayak! He felt so proud when I said he was just like Aunt Allisa.

Here is Beckett playing his favorite water game: "AGAIN!"

Trade Secrets

Overheard:

Beckett: Hey Mom, in our family, we're professors, huh?

Jeanne: Yeah Beck. We're professors.... What kind of professor are you?

Beckett: I am a professor professor.... What kind of professor are you?

Jeanne: I am a chemistry professor, and Papa is a Japanese professor. What kind of professor are you going to be?

Beckett: Japanese.
