ex machina

the eric update - day 404: relaxing in little bay de noc!

not everyday can be filled with the super fantastic adventures. no, sometimes it's nice to settle down in a comfortable hammock, on the grounds of a camp owned by an aunt and uncle, enjoying the sounds of waves lapping on the northern shore of the of the great lake whose name means, roughly translated from the ojibwa ( or chippewa ) word from which it's derived - great water".

if you keep track of such things, today would be the first day that odin laid in a hammock and i'll never admit in public that moments after this shot was taken i tried to lay in it with him and we both fell over the side, much to the amusement everyone nearby.

for those interested in such things this bit of serene lake michigan lakeshore is called the little bay de noc and is just a mile or so from the peninsula point lighthouse on stonington peninsula near where in about 3 or 4 weeks thousands and thousands of monarch butterflies will begin their migration to mexico.

“"it is hard to be brave," said piglet, sniffing slightly, "when you're only a Very Small Animal." rabbit, who had begun to write very busily, looked up and said: "it is because you are a very small animal that you will be Useful in the adventure before us."”

[ about ]

this site chronicles the continuing adventures of my son, odin, who was unexpectedly born on the fourth of july at 25 weeks gestation, weighing 1 pound 7 ounces.

he's quite a fighter and you can always send him a postcard to the most current address listed here if you're inspired by his adventures. see the postcard project/google maps mashup to see a map of the postcards.

if you're new, you can browse the archives to catch up. and don't forget to watch a few movies that i made while we were in the neonatal intensive care unit. or if you want the abridged version and you can find a copy, you can read about his adventures in the november 2005 issue of parents magazine.
