Meet the newest Nyberg!

So after a month and a half of being up here we figured it was time to make a new addition to the Nyberg family. Hence Agate, the 6 1/2 week old kitty, became a member. He and three of his siblings were brought into Tracy's work and she instantly fell in love with his little mitten hands (reminding her of the lower peninsula) and his lovable personality. Thule and him have slowly been warming up to each other and even now share a bed with Tracy and Dave. The lucky kitty gets to go in every day to see his siblings and play at Bayshore. All in all the adjustment to Skandia is going well and we love having him be a part of our family.

Tracy's Boys

It sure has been hot up here these last couple of days! Thule and Tracy spent the weekend afternoons at the beach while Dave unfortunately was studying. Thule is still a little hesitant of the water but managed to lay in it to keep cool. Lake Superior--so clear and refreshing!! Thanks to some friends we even ventured outside town some to find a new favorite dog beach.

Despite the heat the garden continues to grow. Little jalapeno and red peppers are sprouting and everything seems to be doing well. We're hoping for a good harvest later this summer and fall. Pretty neat to watch plants grow from seeds and seedlings as we water them every day.
