Calton Hill Climber

 Here are some pics from a recent visit to Calton Hill. There is nothing like climbing old Victorian observatories.









A Walk With Our Sean

 Sean and I went for a walk the other day and here are some of the highlights:


Due to a lot of rain lately the water had risen to mad levels. Always fun when that happens.

"You talking to me?"

We found a very high and very Scottish bridge. Not far from Murrayfield. 

We celebrated our endeavor with donuts!

Careful Now

This is Sean posing at the site, not far from our house, where a double decker bus drove inte a building one morning. I bicycled by the site minutes after the crash happened. Needless to say - did I have story for the office that day?!




I See You

When you are trying to get some work done but the curious snow leopard won't leave you alone.


Oh, Hello!

 Accidentally surprised this power socket at work.


 

Sweet!

Finally find a job I'd be good at.

Beauty is Truth, Truth Beuaty.

Sean always keep a stable of stuffed animals near, and they always seem keen to act out plays and scenarios that that mirror our own experiences.
Below one can see the Halloween Spider play the part of the Amazon delivery man with the Dragon, Dolphin, Flamingo family sitting at home (with the child reading a book). All this was played out for the enjoyment of Snow.




Quarantine Fit

Since all schools in the UK are closed Sean and I have been doing a lot more indoor activities that usual. We do yoga, as good as daily, Lego, and Chess. Note that the images below if us doing yoga are a cople of months old and we are better at it now.




Aldous Huxley, Sean, and I

Hera are some more pictures of what might happen in the Erikson household the days we are all off together.

The Book of Matt

To kick things off, here is a pic of myself looking my most Mormon-esque. Someone has got to be weird and harass strangers with odd questions now that the real LDS followers can't go outside.

"Have you heard about our cult from upstate New York
that once declared war on the United States' Government"

Do Not Go Gentle Into The Roaring Twenties

And we are, once again, back!
In a well intended attempt to maintain contact with our families all over the world I have decided to revive the old blog. Hope it will as much fun to read and view as it always is to write and post.
