one of the nicest parts about spending some time down east is that odin gets a chance to meet family who have only been able to follow his adventures on the internet.

we’ve noticed recently that he can be a little shy around new people. or maybe shy isn’t the right word. he just likes to hang back and watch people when he first meets them.

it didn’t take him long to decide that maybe it was alright to sit with his cousin hayley and and investigate grandma’s watch.

many might not know that the young looking grandma delivered me about 14 weeks early back in 1972 when the odds of surviving such an early birth were much less than they are now.

needless to say, she’s pretty proud of her miracle boys.
