Somersault

The weather was wonderfully clear for our trip from Japan to my folks' place in Ohio, but we had a nice snow a day or two later, much to Anthony's glee.

“Snow Pile Leap” is an awesome action shot. I was impressed by the thumbnail and viewed at its larger size, and wow… really neat.

I noticed you were coming to Ohio and see that you got here in this post. We had a blizzard on December 26, 2012 and where we live 8 inches of snow fell but then that was blown into significant drifts. We still have most of it. Still feeding the birds and squirrels daily and our temperature controlled pet water dish is used by anything wanting a drink and of course everything like ponds, creeks and rivers are frozen. So the pet thermostatically controlled water dish (Amazon dot com) has been a big hit. I did see some posted about Sendai weather.

Saw the first photograph and figured…Jeffrey is having fun…not.

IT’s that young son of yours, gowing like a weed. He’s going to be nears as tall as his Dad if he keeps sprouting!

However it looks to me as if he was having the time of his life. here is something to be said
for Christmas at your home with your parents. This is the first year both of mine have not been
here with me, my Mum last year, my father in 1982.
My brother and his family in Texas have indicated they shall never return to socialist leaning Canada, which is fine by me.

My point is try and see your family as often as possible
as when they’re gone a void is left in your life, regardless.

As for a winter Christmas, Anthony is the happy wonderful proof. Did your wife make it for Christmas?

I think your caption should be “Wintersault” not Summersault. Your Ohio Winter shot is mindblowingly beautiful.

The “pure fun” pic looks so cute. And yes, like Bryce I thought that Anthony has grown a lot!
BTW, my son would have loved this snow, too…
