Hello!   Once again it has been months since we posted anything new.   

School is ending -- Tomorrow (June 24) the twins have their last final exam of their freshmen year of high school.  Time sure flies.  (I am reminded of the saying 'the days are long, the years are short'). 

Yesterday I took James to a weekly chess club on Main Street of downtown Buffalo.  He played 2 games against an older guy named Fernando.  James won both games, but Fernando cut James some slack in the first game.

Matthew and I walked around while James was playing chess.  

Pictures include Matthew riding his bike to a final exam last week.    James playing chess.   The first catholic church in Buffalo (the current church was built in 1886, but replaced an older building from 1829).   Matthew and I got a cold coke at the Founding Fathers bar (lots of flags and pictures of presidents on the walls.)   And there is the groundhog that visits the back yard.

It has been way too long since we posted anything.  I suppose things have happened and pictures were taken since that last entry.  

We had some low-70 degree days in February, but we've had snow recently.  It sure doesn't look like Spring right now.
