Memorial Day

Memorial Day marks the beginning of the summer season.

More important: Memorial Day is a day of remembrance. Many of you will spend the day tomorrow remembering the ones you love and the ones you have loved who have bravely served our country.

Green Dogs

Michael gave me a DOG book for Mother's Day with a note that said: Pick one!
So, I picked an Anatolian Shepherd & he said: No...too aggressive.
I picked a German Shepherd and he said: No... way too aggressive.
I picked a Bulldog and he said: No... too ugly and they slobber.

Hospitals and Fall Festivals

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 00:20:13 +0100

I'm slowly recovering from a nasty bout of diverticulitis and am preparing for Tree Hill Nature Center's Music and Harvest Moon Festivals on Saturday, October 24.

OBX has a ban on plastic bags now and even the local Brew Station is going green.
