Always with a ball!

Now this was fun.  When you give yourself the excuse to rejoin your childhood, it always pays off.  Swinging on these vines with Schuyler, I was transported back to my own childhood - just that same feeling, that feel of the uneven knot of vines (really roots, right?) on your palms, and the slight danger of falling.  I remember hours spent doing exactly this both here and at Coral Beach as Mum played tennis.  Uncle Will and I would do this forever until we were called in.  But a chilly February day playing in the park would not be complete without some warm hot cocoa from a thermos, shared among friends and family (thanks, Mum).
