Then, Now and a Really Fat Squirrel...

Then...
With Rosie turning 6 months in a few days it was nice to get some pictures from her first day with us. Andrew and Heather were holding on to these treasures but here they finally are. No wonder she weaseled her way into our hearts...she was so darned cute!


Now...
Mike was busy at the track this weekend and someone took some good pictures. He ended up second after losing in the finals to the current junior national champion who had just returned from a national training camp. He also (surprisingly) made it to the endurance final but had to ride up to the rail immediately after his final sprint so dropped out early. Impressive that he made it though.
This is the quarter finals...easy win.

Another win in the semi-final. This guy qualified second.

Racing his good friend Lorne in the first round.

And just cruising around between races.

Here is a picture of Rosie looking out the window this morning. A little bigger than when we got her.
The Fat Squirrel...
Finally, the obesity epidemic has affected our squirrel population. This guy has so many chins he has trouble turning his head.
