Above the usual tasks of sound room and video production, I was asked to perform a small skit as a French Chef.  Both Jess and I did it.  I’m not much for learning lines, so I just read it from the script.  I assisted in the video production this year, after taking a few years… Continue reading »

Very little riding has taken place this year.  But even so, another milestone was passed.  On the way back from a eighty mile ride, I rolled 7,000 miles on the motorcycle.  I was hoping to get another 4,000 miles on this year… I’m way behind with about 700 right now.

Well, I haven’t put many miles on the motorcycle this year, but it was time for a tire (No, I didn’t wear it out with burn-outs).  I took it down to the local garage hoping to get a State Inspection Sticker, but it didn’t pass.  I bought the tire online with free shipping, thought I… Continue reading »

The warnings were all there.  The spray paint on the road, the masked road signs, and then.. it happened. They put up a road block on Route 11.  You can see the sign from our house.  Local Traffic Only.  It was time to replace the old bridge down at the Rollins Mill Pond.  The road/bridge… Continue reading »

If you know me well enough, you know that I don’t attend weddings or funerals.  Now of course what I mean by don’t is… I’ll attend the event if it means I’ll be subjected to less emotional involvement at the event than the days prior or after from family and friends if I don’t go. … Continue reading »

We’ll continue to do our part as parents to raise him in… Continue reading »

I generally only grab lobster about once a year.  Sometimes I just have a lobster-pound cook it for me but I thought I might get more bang for my buck if I managed it on my own this go around.  Since Nathan and Jess don’t touch it, it’s hardly ever worth the effort for one… Continue reading »

The Charleston Farm League All-Star game was scheduled for this AM, but the rains came once again and changed the weekend plans.  A phone call came in and Nathan was invited to ride in the Corinth Fire truck for the parade, so off he went.  We went over and watched the parade and then we… Continue reading »

Nathan had another chapter of his life unfold this week.  He went to his first sleep-over… to a friends house.  A friend from school, the same that just beat him in the playoffs, invited a bunch of boys from school over to camp out. Nathan did much better than Mama did, but we all managed. … Continue reading »
