My nephew is still here but there aren't any new kid photos to share. Faith and Christopher went to the ocean yesterday, his very first time. Lots of shells (mostly broken from what I can tell) to take back to Wyoming. Maybe there never were oceans in the midwest, just ancient tourists with seven year olds? Today they are off to see Llamas, a gorge, and probably a science museum. None of which he wants to do. Kids this age find everything they haven't done or tried boring. Some kind of automatic offense mechanism to save them from non-nintendo activities.

I'm staying home and working through all of this. Like those t-shirts you pick up at tourist spots: The family went to the beach and all I got was a bathtub full of sand.
