A little of this, a little of that............

It has been a while since I (Pat) have posted.  We were still in Greece when I last posted and we have been home since the middle of January.  With the weather being as miserable as can be, I have had some time to look through all the pictures I took and found some that we haven't posted.  So that being said, enjoy.



We spent the last weekend in Greece doing some final site-seeing in Thessaloniki.  Jill was still with us and it was Artemis' first extended tour of her birth city.

Snug as a bug...........


On Saturday we took a cab the far end of the harbor walk and walked back to the city center.  The temps were in the 60's and the water very calm with little breeze.  We saw a couple of folks paddle boarding.

 
Part way back we stopped for lunch at a dock club and spent a couple of hours eating, drinking, talking and just generally enjoying the day.

I wanted to get a little perspective on our trip.

 
Alexander looking good (great?).

Fast forward a few weeks after our arrival back home and we headed to Ithaca for a long weekend.  Always a enjoyable trip as we really enjoy the city and we get to visit with Keith and Sarah.
 
 
Keith has converted a part of a spare room into his workshop.  To make it work he has built a workbench and tool storage.
 
 
He has chronicled the installation on his blog, but I thought it needed additional recognition.
 
 
I have always enjoyed this bookshelf in their entryway and this display in particular.
 
 
 
Dinner time?
 
 
Why are you taking my picture?
 
 
Aunt Sarah and Zhora

  1. It's so great that you and Mom are getting to do the traveling that you'd hoped to. Two trips in the bag and one on the horizon. We always look forward to hearing your stories and perspectives, and to seeing your pictures. Keep 'em coming!
