Halloween Haul! 2018 Edition
A strong haul for the kids mostly driven by Jack! He leveraged his running skills and ran solo through the neighborhood with me trailing behind monitoring.
This is the first year I recall packaged Dove bars (top left). Twix seem down. Hershey's, Reese's and M&M's are holding their own.

Drownproofing Class
Dad would often speak of his drownproofing class at GT. He paid Bill and I to learn the technique and put it to the test. I've done the same with Jack and will with Elle too!
