Well do I have a blog post for you! Although, there is one stipulation. If you start reading it you must read it right until the very end. Deal? Perfect! Bill and I have had our trip to Washington DC planned for a long time. Even though I had been many times, Bill was still…

The plan for *that* situation
I don’t want to talk about it, think about it, or mention it yet that is all I can think about. Collingwood in September. My somewhat schizophrenic range of thoughts on this issue can be highlighted in various You Tube videos. One minute I have images like this in my head – And this –…
A summer afternoon at 3pm
Feels like 6pm in winter… this doesn’t include the thunder/lightning or blowing rain! So exciting!
