Caveat: A Churchy Library

Dateline: Whitewater, Wisconsin.


After building the lego tower, we went to a state park archeological site called Aztalan, near here. I might try to write something more extensive about that, later – it was pretty interesting.

Then we drove to  a town called Lake Mills for dinner. It’s a cute town. We went to a kind of hippyish place where I had a humus wrap that wasn’t bad – it was a bit like something you’d find in Arcata. We went walking in a cute town square park area, and I saw an attractive older public library. Five year-old Henry was at my side, and as I went to take a picture of it, he said that he thought it was a nice-looking church.

“It’s not a church,” I explained. “It’s a library.”

Henry doesn’t like being wrong. But he was very good-natured. “Oh my gosh!” he exclaimed. “That sure is a churchy library!”

Caveat: Our goal is to reach the ceiling

Dateline: Whitewater, Wisconsin


pictureWe built a tower with legos in the living room, with my bestfriend Bob’s family: Sarah and his two sons Henry and Theo. Here’s a picture, at right, of the tower, with Theo, age 2, standing dangerously close: his nickname is currently Shiva the Destroyer, as is often the case with 2-year-olds.

Henry, currently 5, explained as we built it: “Our goal is to reach the ceiling.” And we did.
