Thing 2 — Scooting
Thing 3 — Enrolling a Large Part of our Family into a Scooter Gang
Thing 4 — Being Photographed at Night
Thing 5 — Riding on a Taxi that Floats
I ask you, what [...]

Joe bought the same kit that I used to create the Dodo, but his creation turned out to be far less flightless; which is to say that it flew.
I’ve been inspired to resurrect the Dodo, and see if I can’t make it soar once again. We shall see.
Despite not having our own functioning plane [...]

We have been to Baja, and it was excellent. I’d highly recommend it. We saw many things, many of which you can see on our flickr gallery of the trip, or on Jesse’s.
The video above is of diving Pelicans near Bahia De Los Angeles, excellent birds in an excellent place.

My flickr account has recently been inundated with baby photos. I suppose there are worse things to be inundated with. Perhaps I’ll soon be fielding calls from calendar companies looking for the next Anne Geddies. Forget advertising or dentistry, a career in baby photos is the way to go.
But that’s not what you’re here for. [...]

I like to think of myself as someone who’s traveled quite a bit. However, I just discovered this TravBuddy map which asks you to input every country you’ve visited, then generates a travel map showing where you’ve been. You can see mine here.

Last night Bugaboo’s (Sadie if you must) parents thought that we should shoot her Anne Geddes style. So we did.
Bugaboo didn’t really approve, but we were able to catch her in a few moments of [...]

There is one more bowen in the world today than there was yesterday. Because she hasn’t yet been named, we’ve decided to call her [...]
