New swingset!

Filed under:Juneau, Torsten — posted by Matt on July 7, 2008 @ 9:37 pm

The swingset is up and a big hit!  This was cobbled together from all over–Christmas gifts from Grams (thanks!), piles of dirt from dumptrucks (two loads!) lots of leveling by Uncle Peter (thanks!), a juneauparents (or freecycle?) swingset from Douglas and help transporting it (thanks Sara and Peter!).  Paint by Carrie, Matt, and Peter.  Fun provided by Torsten.

Two friends from the neighborhood are enjoying the swingset–woohoo!

Biking to Herbert Glacier

Filed under:Juneau — posted by Matt on @ 9:12 pm

We all went biking out Herbert Glacier Trail with Jaye, Sara, Carrie, Torsten, and Matt.  Torsten really loved his trail-a-bike and enjoyed the rolling hills on the trail.  Suka and Data had a fun running along (to Torsten’s enjoyment) and Torsten treated us to a great song for a good portion of the ride back.

 

 

 Matt was pedaling to keep up with Torsten’s speed, and taking blind photos over his back..

Last Day of School

Torsten had a great year at Auke Bay Co-op–a really wonderful environment!  On the last day of school, there was a bicycle parade of all the kids:

Thanks to Miss Ann and Miss Jeri (the great teachers!) and all the parents who pitched into the co-op!
