Bang a Gong
Shoku gong. Odin thoroughly enjoyed banging the gong. We thoroughly enjoyed Shoku sushi.
Columbus Friends
Odin's old rug that our friends accepted when we moved. This was Odin's carpet island in our old wooden-floored condo. He cried when we tried to give it away before we left...so we waited until he was packed up in the car the final day before it departed our floor. 
James facilitating our babied descent into addiction to Jeni's Ice Cream.

We saw sassy friends!
