Sukkot 2009

Decorating the Sukkah

Sam and Amy decorate our 2nd-ever attempt at a Sukkah back in October. We ‘repurposed’ a general use shade/shelter tent we picked up at Target by removing the roof, hanging muslin from the sides, and finding branches around the ‘hood. Worked quite well, until the rains came ;-).

A Boston Bar Mitzvah

The family headed to Boston – well, the North Shore to be exact – to join in the festivities around Austin’s Bar Mitzvah. We stayed with the Hogan crew at a quaint little home on a pond in Marblehead, and had a great time.

Chicago 2009


A few images from Chicago, a town I rarely get to visit, while I was there in late August to speak at a conference.
