July and early August 2002
Here is Jan and Valerie's son Arlo enjoying the water,Quentin, Ken, Sindi, Scott, Tim (tpryan), Eric (ea), Jan, Valerie, Kendra, balynce and lots ofjunk food in a pavilion while it rained, and Tim and his new (smaller) car . Here is a table with Marcus (mdw), buddy, Mark (aruba), Tim, balynce and ea . Our bikes are in the rear, and another grexer whose name I forget also came on person-powered wheels.
In late July we were visited by our old housemate (1985) Yilin and his wife Ming and son Lian Han and young daughter Jing Jing, whom we last saw in Chicago. (See their Chicago photos with lots of good home cooking at Geocities.)
In early August we enjoyed a visit with Jim's son Dave Deigert, who is a geology major at Michigan Tech in Houghton. Jim and Dave and groundhog #4 (in the trap, on the bike, wrapped in black plastic) and I biked to Parker Mill along the river, where we let it go in the woods . Here is another local resident (raccoon) which climbed onto Jim's bike that evening to beg for food at my back door. We stopped for a picnic (you can see the empty trap folded up in Jim's milk crate) and also to visit Jim's old neighbor Ted (not home) who was having some major landscaping done. (As Joel, Jim's housemate, put it - some crazy guy on Geddes Rd. is filling his whole yard with rocks and waterfalls.)
