Went to Cargill for my 20th High School reunion. It was a shared event between SHHS (my school) and the heathens at WDSS. About 40 grads per school plus spouses. It was way better than I thought it would be. I was concerned I’d just know Steve and the Henrys. So it was even more… Read More »
Went golfing at WhistleBear last night with the Tech League. It’s nice to play a private course to see how the richies live. Afterwards, went with Pat and Robby to see Thor. Well worth seeing in the theather. Great effects and excellent sound. Good choice for something I rarely do these days. Made it worth… Read More »
Robby hit a hole-in-one last Monday on the 4th hole on the Village 9 at Conestoga. It’s a 140 yd hole. The challenge on that day was that it just after a huge downpour (soaked greens) and the fog was rising from the ground. We weren’t certain until we got to the green and looked… Read More »
– Wettest Spring Ever – Still don’t have garden fully planted (only tomatoes) – Need to fix roto-tiller. One of the arms fell off. That made for an interesting plowing session – Throughout the wetness, May 24 turned out to be sunny and warm. Wonderful outdoor party with best-ever ribs and awesome fireworks display. Kudos… Read More »
Back in ’06 I blogged about a tasty way to make ribs. But the problem in the end was that they just didn’t fall off the bone as planned. Now, I think I’ve got an approach that finally succeeds. Plus a nice BBQ sauce if you love sweet and over the top tanginess. The Sauce… Read More »
Last Sun, went to the Pixies 20th Anniversary of Doolittle conert at the Centre. Went with Sonia, Steph, Sean and Susan. One of the best concerts I’ve been to ever. The production was impressive with the huge video backdrop that was put to excellent use during the concert. Some wonderful macabre scenes from the Dali… Read More »
I heard my first Robins of spring, but I wasn’t able to spot them. I’m going back outside to spot them. It would mean everything to me.
We’ve entered the next phase of music. It’s all about dancing for OG. And it’s all about Come On Feel The Noise! Quiet Riot is the bomb in our household!!!!
I have asked Olivia if I can transpose her song she’s been playing on the piano onto sheet music. It’s a melody she’s been playing for quite some time that seems somewhat random but has a consistent feel about it. She is excited about the opportunity. Quickly, my well thought-out plan was thrown away. It… Read More »
Yes, I’ve been neglectful posting…but for good reason. Been contemplating a new shift in career. During all this ‘contemplation’, Christien has moved out of the crib and into his big-boy bed. It’s a new single bed close to the floor that took 3 hrs (!!) to put together. Last night was night number one. Mixed… Read More »
