The Best Friends
Carry you in time of need. We’re very lucky to have such a tolerant dog. – b
The Best Toys
Are ones that bang and clang and make Mom and & Dad nervous when I play with them Who Me? – b
Another Rope Deal
You may remember way back when I got a used rope and treated it for winter adventure just-in-case situations. Well this winter’s adventure is going to have a little more than just just-in-case situations and might require more rope. But not new rope or even nearly new rope.

The Painters

Once it’s painted, I’ll put the trim up around the door (using the new air compressor) and that will be about it for us. We’ll still need to replace the steps, risers and trim out the stairs, but we’ll hire […]
