One if by Land, Two if by Sea

At the end of July, Gareth, Kathleen, Tess and I celebrated the local Norwegian heritage festival, also known as Nordicfest, by participating in many of the festivities. One of those festivities was an early morning 15K run. Gareth wanted to go with me, but I decided his added 20 pounds would hurt my time.

Rather than running, he relaxed on a blanket.



A few weeks earlier, Gareth went for his first official swim in Grandma Holly's pool.

The water was a bit cold and he didn't enjoy the refreshing dip all that much.

He was far happier on the raft than he was in the water proper.
