First Beets!


Heather's garden is doing very well. We have plenty of lettuce, the carrots are coming along and Heather is super excited about her first beets, which she says are tasty, but I don't believe her.

Jimmies 75th

Today would have been my Dad's 75th birthday. To honor him, I thought I would post one of my favorite pic/memory of him. Dad had the uncanny ability to ride bikes backwards, which was funny because I don't know if I ever saw him ride it the normal way.
