I need to capture our last family vacation for posterity, but it occurred to me last night to go ahead and record all the college visits we have had with the wee one so far. In one years time she will have decided and be packing her bags to head off. In no particular order

We switched over to The Night of the Living Dead version of Zombicide for a change of pace. It really is quite enjoyable and we were cruising along, sometimes playing two scenarios a night until last night when someone made a big tactical error early on in our second game and we lost. We will

Having bad luck with vehicles lately. This is as close to a classic “grandma” car as you can get, 2013 with only 63 thousand miles on it. Pretty good little car for the kids to learn to drive in. The problem is it has just a tiny little nine volt battery in it. Tonight, it

A few weeks ago we were in Kentucky for the weekend for our annual hay ride and other festivities. I forgot to bring my guns but my brother-in-law always has plenty of weapons to play with. This target was setup at about 100 yards down range. Every “ding” you hear is a bullseye. I’ve never

When we were on vacation this year and I took a Stephen King book with me. I was never a huge fan but always like most of his stuff, especially when I was looking for an easy read. I can’t remember the name of the book I was reading but I had recently watched and
