Happy Thanksgiving

There is so much to be thankful for! We are so lucky to live in this country with the freedoms that we have. There is so much hate, violence and oppression in the world around us. I am so very thankful to be an American.

Snow Before December

On the day before thanksgiving, we will get between 8-13 inches of snow! I know from personal experience that significant snow before December means a nasty winter.

Rockport

Rockport Massachusetts, salty air and souvenir shops. You may fall in love with old cape cod but the north shore can empty your wallet just as well.

To Those Who Serve

Today is Veterans Day. A special day to remember those who served. I complained a lot when I was in the navy. But as I look back it really was a special time in my life and I am glad that I had that experience.

Football and Leaves

Notice the green grass without any leaves! I had to clear the leaves so we could play football. There was a time when they were young and didn't know how to catch the ball. They would let it fall to the ground and bounce. But now they make diving catches and even try to one hand the ball. Fun stuff!
