Harry the seal

Harry has been in the pool quite often and has almost the doggy paddle. He loves to jump to dad (who has to take the plunge into the cool waters first) and then attempt to swim to the other side with a little help with dad, who sometimes lets go. Harrison looks like Henry used to, eyes filled with terror, but keeps at it. The other kids are quite proficient in the water already. The practice at school and after school really helps. There isn't a heater in the pool here at the Flats, so it will close for the winter months, and we'll have to find an indoor pool to keep his progress going.

Carla's trip to Vedenburg was postponed until March. Katy's class has a field trip to the Planetarium on Thursday and I will be driving a car load.
