Ashton and Connor on a Drive

Ashton (on the left) is our neighbor, and Connor is his friend. The vehicle joined the family last year. I remember dreaming more than once as a child that I had been given exactly such a child-sized automobile--the dream seemed absolutely real, and my disappointment when I awoke to reality was profound.

Here are Ashton and his two brothers two years ago, with further links. And here he is last year.

Our first full day back in Northampton--we retrieved our plants from the same neighbors, and went to a meeting of our bird club tonight.
