Chopsticks 101

Here is Joon learning to use his trainer chopsticks for the first time...

Time for an update!

Sorry for the delay. October just disappeared. Here we are in November with cooler temps and shorter days. It has been a busy month including the Cheosuk holiday, Mandarin harvest, home improvement projects and Joon growing quicker than we can sometimes believe. Today I made an attempt to have him 'reading' (really just memorizing) for the camera with no luck. I will try again soon. Currently he is supposed to be going down for his nap although it seems like his need for the nap becomes less and less. We do like the nap tome around here so hopefully it will continue for a little while longer.


Moon and I are putting up some interior insulation for our concrete walls and preparing to replace some doors to make the house a little more bearable on the cold windy days. We are also getting read for another 10 k race next weekend. So far we have kept up with our weekly runs and our energy levels are good. They usually take a not so glamorous photo of us while running which I will post a link to if I can find it.

Here's a pic from a few weeks ago on one of our many walks around the island. They have a coastal system of trails that are 15 to 25 km in length and offer a nice mostly flat walk through farms and coastal vistas. There are also Oreum' s which are parasitic volcanoes that are all over the island and provide short but steep and strenuous hikes with nice views at the top. This is how we have spent our fall when not indoors. Joon will soon be to big for his carrier so we wanted to take advantage of the cooler weather to get some hikes in before the really cold weather arrives.

So long for now, More pictures to come and we hope everyone is doing well.
