the first snow day of the school year was actually unwelcome to isaac, who is midway through intensives week at the shack. he is having a great time making a short post-apocalyptic film with a small group, assisted by chaperons extraordinaire, mark and david m. check out mark's photos from the shoot here. also, thursdays are ski club day. so despite the lovely snow outside, my boy can't slide down a mountain in/on it. he did outfit himself in winter gear and hike a mile to a friend's house. and mark and i outfitted ourselves as well and shoveled the driveway. our neighbor across-two-streets was singing something, and i could've sworn it was crazy train. it seems a little early in the season for that, n'est-ce pas?
