UP Trip

We went home this weekend to see Mom and Dad and get in on the end of the maple syrup season.  Here's mom manning the evaporator.

Joanne came up to check out the whole process.

Mom took over most every feeding. :)

Here's Joanne in action.  Clearly she's a natural.

Mom and Dad got lots of playtime with Daniel.

She's trying to get the little stinker to crawl forward instead of rock back and forth and scoot backward.

Daniel got to enjoy some fresh UP air.  He loved it out on the driveway.

Tom helped Dad with the end-of-season cleanup.

Daniel just watched adoringly.

Then he got his first four wheeler ride!

Grandpa even caught a chipmunk and Daniel got to see him up close before he met his sad fate.

Aunt Joanne thought of rescuing him, but unfortunately he had to answer to the grim reaper, aka Dad.
