We got up early and drove down to Brewster to watch Nyla play in a lacrosse game. I admit to be somewhat befuddled about the rules. Unlike the boys game which features lots of “checking” of opponents (really whacking, flailing, pummeling, and hacking are better terms), the girls game does not allow this. So, the strategy seems quite different. I will have to find the rules for girls lacrosse and examine them further.
At any rate it was great fun seeing Nyla play, even if I experienced some trepidation that hyper-competitive mother Andrea might rush on the field to lead the charge.
We had a 4th of July and Birthday Party for Andrea yesterday in Claverack. These pictures of Hudson Brown, aged 2+, at the cake and ice cream sum it up.

Here are a few pictures taken with our new toy, a Nikon Coolpix 900 digital camera.
Most were taken at a “brunch” held at 52 Kinnaird on 12/26/98.
