Massachusetts: Almost Done!

Let's see, we didn't end up going away for the weekend, AND I didn't get around to updating until just now. Um, Happy (Canadian) Thanksgiving, everyone! (hopefully that will make you forget my negligence)

While in Massachusetts, Lucas was playing around with some clothespins, and it gave me an idea. The end result follows...

This isn't Lucas related, but Marilu and I got a chance to leave Lucas with his grandparents, and then we spent a night at the MGM Grand Hotel at Foxwoods Casino. We took the following picture right after we ate dinner at this FANTASTIC Chinese restaurant. I ate way too much, but by now, my stomach is used to being distended.

Here's a view from our room the following morning. The ones I took at night weren't that impressive even though the "live" view was really something.

Going back to the lake theme from the last Massachusetts entry, one evening we took a ride around the lake on one of those patio boats (or pontoon boats or whatever the heck they are called). The weather was perfect that evening, and we all had a really good time just cruising around dusk.




With my mom by his side, Lucas attempts the grizzled sailor look.


The wind had its way with Marilu's hair.


We're doomed.


I love how this next picture came out.


Finally, a rare nature shot since it really was a beautiful view from the boat.


That's just about it for the Massachusetts trip. Tomorrow, I'll have a couple more pics from our dinner at Eighty Ates, and if I have the time (since I'm spending a LOT of time studying for the real estate course), I'll try and get a couple of the Massachusetts videos uploaded to YouTube.
