All the little sailors


My introduction to the nautical world. A European magazine design activated my must-knit gene. I photo copied  the instructions then went to the library to hunt out a means to translate them. I don't speak dutch despite being married to a family of them. (There was no such thing as "babelfish" back then) Finally my mother -in-law rescued me. She could read dutch of course but not write english. She  translated and I wrote...I think it was our first real bonding. This Is Brice, my second son about age 2 and determined to ride that bike. He's 28 now and graduated to much bigger bikes. : )
