January 6 – Aerogarden

A year ago, I asked for a strawberry pot filled with herbs for Christmas. I got plastics tubs.

This year I got an Aerogarden.

December 26 – PacMan

My uncle has a Nintendo NES system with 3 games; Mario, Duck Hunt and PacMan. He also has a dial-up internet connection.

My oldest had to connect to the internet just to hear the sounds of a modem connecting.

Put up the tree tonight. No idea how to get a decent photo of it in all its lit up glory.

September 17 – Rough Tracks

Tracks

Every day we drive 7 miles across town to drop off Cody at school, then 7 miles back home, then another round trip to pick him up after soccer.  This is our second school year of that routine. We have been known to make the trip 3 times in a day periodically. Since there is really only one route, the drive can be mundane.

This week, I noticed new signs on either side of the railroad tracks. Rather than fix the track, the city decided to put up a sign.

March 30 – Everyday Joe's

everyday-joes

Everyday Joe’s Coffee was the site of the first NoCo Bloggers Meetup. I took a great picture of everyone smiling, light looked o.k., but the shutter was open just a bit too long and it’s blurry. Then I took another with the flash – and everyone looked drunk. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that state of being, except its documentation by a stranger.)

The building was originally a gas station in the 1920s (?). Now it is a church 1 day a week and a coffee house the rest. Great business, great architecture, great coffee, kind souls.
