Rock Hammer for Scale and Others

As many of you know, I study geology.  As a geologist I have been taught to take photos out in the field and a photo is only useful if you know the scale of what you are looking at.  Geologists often have a rock hammer with them so rock hammers show up in many of their photos.  One of my professors told me that he takes a picture of each of his newborns with a rock hammer for scale, and I thought that it was a great idea, so I've decided to follow suit.  So there you have it; T.W. with a rock hammer for scale.

 


This is about the most open that T.W.'s eyes have been up until the point where this picture was taken.  They open a little wider than this now, but not much.

Not to be left out, here is a video of Sally dancing to some classical music on the radio.
