Pumpkins

This weekend we took the train down to mom and dad's for mom's birthday.  On Friday we went to the local pumpkin patch and had a grand old time feeding the animals and searching for the perfect pumpkin.

In other news, I am teaching two graduate classes at the UW, and so far haven't been kicked off campus.  Which is a HUGE relief.

Roll over Bigfoot, there's a new beast in town.

Fall Frolic
