He enjoyed his very first summertime watermelon. There really is no better way to eat watermelon than to just dig in and get your face all up in there and just try your best to breathe.
And he enjoyed his very first 4th of July sparklers (held by me in the foreground). Unfortunately his bedtime is hours before dark settles in, so we had to light them in daylight. Not quite as impressive, but I think he got the idea.


Ooooo. Spaaaaaarlkers! Grandpa Chadwick has just returned from a trip to Northern Virginia (work) and found it is still hot (100 degrees) humid (99.9%), gridlocked with traffic - especially in places where I had to drive and mean-spirited (got flipped off by no fewer than three 20-something women in BMWs for failure to exceed the speed limit by at leat 20 mph. Was very happy to get back to Blacksburg, which has NONE of these afflictions. Next weekend I hope to go to Charlotte to (a) see Spud and (b) help his Dad with a deck.
