Shoveling 2017 December 30

The first significant snow fall on the second to the last day of the year. It's nice to have 3 strapping fellows to go out and shovel. I did let them sleep in their nice warm beds though - Get it? ;-)

I'm Back!

I can't believe it's been almost a year since I've put anything on here.  Time goes by so fast.  A move, an unemployment, a new job, new schools for the kids and BOOM- almost an entire year.

Here are a few things that I have through this year that I haven't put up yet.  Hopefully more to come soon. 

Beach 2017

We only went to the beach one time this year. This was an AWESOME beach about an hour away. It was a beautiful day. The beach was at Moraine State Park.
