Mr. Wonderful

He in his Sunday best on the train to church.

She's still got it!

Mrs. Bavaria was clearly on her trainride home from the meadows, after a day of cross country skiing. With her boots neatly off, she was writing in her calendar when I interrupted her with this photo. She was otherwise very cheery, though clearly suspicious of me here, wondering what I was doing.

Little House on the Prairie.

He thought this picture of she as Laura Ingalls was particularly funny.
Almost as funny as she finds imagining he, at a tender age, sitting close to the TV shedding uncontrollable tears with Mary and Laura. Turns out she doesn't even like the show, though her faux fur-trimmed hat and prairie skirt might earn her character privileges.

Grocery store thugs

Thanks Gram for the warm hats!

We visited a brand new, upscale grocery store in our neighborhood. We felt a little casual in dress, and when walking back to the train we laughed about how we must appear: two bundled bodies trudging through the snow in the darkness back to the train with a lot of grocery bags in tow.
Like "all of our belongings in the bags" a lot.
We are a delightful, far cry away from homeless -- who cares if we don't yet have a car!


The very tidy soda section.
