We got about 8 inches of snow Tuesday night. The Shipyard where I work was closed yesterday and today, so I’ve had plenty of time to enjoy this winter wonderland. Mike drove up from Aiken on Tuesday and we’ve got to unload our Uhaul once the streets are safe. We’re keeping all of our stuff
Our third annual trip to Oktoberfest went swimmingly. We met Joe and Renee in Helen on Friday around dinner time, and after a few beers at Konig Ludwig Bier Garten, we headed to the Hiedelberg to eat. This place has the best Schnitzel and Spaetzel, but if you don’t get there early you’ll end up
I don’t think I need to explain my weak spot for animals. My Instagram is saturated with pet pictures. Given the resources, my dream would be to own a lot of land and open up a no-kill animal shelter, whiling away the hours making sure all the lost, dejected, and unwanted animals know what it
Sometimes I forget how easy it is to go exploring. I don’t have to drive for several hours to find some place new. Hitchcock Woods is essentially in our backyard and every time I go it’s different. Last time I was in the woods was when Megan came to visit. Sunday afternoon I took Bella
Dear Bella, You will be six years old in February. I guess that makes sometime this month your half birthday. I remember the day I brought you home from the hospital middle of nowhere. I’d driven about an hour outside of Tallahassee to pick you up from some nice people. They found you and your sister
After our mini adventure in Frankenmuth, we kept heading north on I-75 until we got to the town of Bay City. I just didn’t feel right driving all the way to Michigan and not seeing one of the Great Lakes. We stopped in Bay City because I needed ice cream. Then we got back in
Did you guys know Christmas is my favorite holiday? When I found out about Bronner’s I knew I couldn’t leave Michigan without visiting. I didn’t think it was going to be possible because initially I thought it was just too far from where we were staying. But after some sleuthing on MapQuest I realized
We had a few spare hours one afternoon, so Mike, Chris, and I went to Detroit to catch a Tigers’ game. They were playing the Washington Nationals and it was neat to be there because I have some ties to DC. Detroit blew the Nats out of the water – the final score was 1
So we spent a few days in Michigan last week. It was my first time to that part of the country, and also my first time that far north. We drove through North Carolina, Kentucky, and Ohio, and it was my first time to see Ohio, too! We stopped for gas somewhere near Bowling Green
Mike and I have been in Michigan all week and are attending a wedding today in Davison! I love weddings, though there’s always a part of me that compares every wedding I’ve been to with my own. Mike and I had a medium sized wedding. We invited more than 200 people and around 150 RSVPd
