Fall

This morning when I let Milu out I started shivering, it was really chilly outside a mere 55 degrees (12 Celsius). I had to rush back inside and dig up a sweater, last time I wore one was in early April.

Fall is here with oyster roasts, bon fires and not to forget Halloween. Tonight will likely consist of to cut my grass and plan this years Halloween decoration, we have added a few new ones but the 8 foot skull is still the ornament anchor.

He's got game














I don't know if you know much about golf but Alex, our 5 year old sure has got the hang of it. First tee up.














Second, look down the fairway and line your self up.













Focus on the ball.













Swing all the way back, remember your left arm is guiding keep it straight and shoulders parallel, bend wrists for maximum power.













And then simply swing through and watch your ball fly down the fair way. Easy peasy lemon squeeze.

Sunday golf














On Sunday afternoons we try to get some golf in the kids and I, mostly Alex and I but once in awhile the little Fia likes to join us.














Just look at how far Alex tees off, about 100 yards each time and straight at that.














Concentrate.













Oh yes, in the hole.













Two kids on #5 a sunny afternoon in SC, we had a blast.

Alex has started this falls soccer reason with a bang. He is the top scorer to our delight.















He managed to score seven goals in one game. If he continuous we will live in Barcelona before long.
















Alex " superstar" as he humbly introduce himself these days.

I wave at random people

I've known for a long time that Harley Davidson drivers wave at each other on the road, a cool discreet hands low signal of recognition.

I know that there are some serious car aficionados, I once was a member of Alfa Romeo Club Sweden ( I would trade Gustav for an Alfa in a skinny minute if they sold them here in the US) and that club had some interesting members.

So here I am in Charleston, SC and random people wave at me driving down the road and I of course wave back at them.

Random people might be a bit unjust, these are some good folks that I respect.

Why? They drive Mini's.

We will also motor

Sailing in all it's glory is great but we will also enjoy motoring with Ms Jones this weekend.

Marta had her first motoring experience with Miss J last weekend and I almost had to drive Gustav (her Volvo V70) from that moment on.

Now I'm very reluctant to let Marta drive her, not that she can't she handles her just fine, but Miss J is mine, my mistress in Astro Black and a white roof.

Labor day

Long weekend!

Marta has it all planed out, we will go sailing two out of three days. I don't know what I have done to deserve this but I really appreciate her efforts.

If I could only remember to keep my mouth shut and not to ask her to sail the boat we might be on to something....
