The reason for the...

vacation. Please excuse Poliwog Hattie. Sometimes she does close her mouth, but usually manages to get it wide open just as the shutter on the camera opens! She is 4' 2" and 5 years old. Hattie is going to be one tall kid when she stops growing! Dressed in black is the Tiniest Poliwog Jack. He's short, but everybody was a t 2 1/2 years. He will probably end up as a rairoad engineer. His hero is Thomas the Tank Engine. The best way to keep him in one place (hey, he's only 2 1/2) is to hold onto him...


which is exactly what Tadpole Tomi is doing! Tadpole Tomi is 6' 2". In this picture she is slightly bent of knee and not at full height. It is a humbling bit to have Tadpole #1's wife have to bend over to give me a hug. Oh well, the benevolent ruler of the Bog needs to periodically get humbled. Tadpole #1 stands about 6' 1". I don't know how he got lucky enough to land Tadpole Tomi. It might have something to do with his airborne training! Especially since I inhereted all the good looks in the family.

The Silly Goose is in the green sweat shirt. Her main calling in life, at this time, is to keep His Frogginess (me-Kermit) in line. She is so good at it these days that she can manage a fulltime job, and His Frogginess stays pretty well in line!

Now that you've had the vacation rap and seen the favorite vacation picture... tomorrow, I'll get back to miscellaineous political rants and other observations of life as I know it.

Peace and all good,

Kermit
