Car Follies Part 2 (truck follies)
So for some reason, I get it in my brain today to throw the bikes in the back of the truck, and let’s head down to Gateway Park and do some biking. All of that was fine and well and we did half an hour of biking and loaded up the bikes and headed back…

Car follies
I feel bad. I finally talked Sandy into washing her car and she scrubbed a little too hard trying to get one of the stickers off her car and it left a pretty bad mark. I feel like I should have been a little more on top of that but I also don’t feel like…

Met with our remodel architect
We had Hanna Park over to look at and get measurements for the kitchen to remodel. Hopefully, she will be able to provide the direction we need to get this thing started and bring it in on or under budget. I did kind of smile when I was helping her get measurements and remembered roller-blading…
