Beautiful autumn color and a camping photo from the late 1980s

| November 7, 2025

I know, it is Friday and that generally means an interesting (at least to me) Tech Friday story. Does a photo of Brenda’s “tech-y” Tesla Model 3 with the trees changing count? I didn’t think so … In reality, I’m slightly behind in my week and totally missed posting a #TBT photo my buddy Jeff […]

Too many Internet downloads in my “To Blog On” folder

| November 6, 2025

The subject line reference “To Blog On” isn’t really correct … but the sentiment is the same. The referenced folder is really labeled MyCubbyC_xxxx (the year) and goes back to when I was using the LogMeIn service in 2013. I used their early beta cloud storage service called MyCubby at the time. It continues to […]

Leftover Halloween photo and the Rear Fence Fiasco

| November 5, 2025

Let’s start with the leftover “fun” photo since I archived a little about the granddaughters this week, but not Megan and Taylor. So this week I’ll include an “off to a Halloween party around a bonfire with some friends” for the archive. I did look like they had fun. For us, no trick or treaters […]

Music Monday: The Bellamy Brothers – “Let Your Love Flow”

| November 3, 2025

Last week I heard a song that triggered a good memory (below), as music often does. This Music Monday song, “Let Your Love Flow” was a 1976 hit by the Bellamy Brothers that was often played one my roommates, Don Blinn, at Ohio Northern University (there were 3 of us my Junior year in the […]

The Dodger winning in 2025 game 7 over the Blue Jays is already being called the greatest finale in World Series baseball history

| November 2, 2025

Brenda and I were “emotionally” invested in the very competitive 2025 World Series. Having watched nearly every game of the playoffs … and all 7 nail-biting World Series games, gave us time to learn more about the teams and players. We pick favorites and I even found myself nicknaming them.  After the final pitch late […]

Sunflowers, good morning! (altho our growing season is over)

| November 2, 2025

Sunflowers … Good Morning. Woke up to the gold in your eyes, Petals unfolding, chasing the skies. Dew-kissed leaves on the windowsill, Whispering secrets that time can’t steal. The world’s still sleepy, but you’re my dawn, Turning the shadows ’til they’re gone. Heads held high, no storm too strong. You bloom where the wild winds […]

Record high NEW car prices in 2025 keeps me buying used cars

| November 1, 2025

After recently selling our 2010 Acura RDX and replacing it with a “previously loved” 2019 Tesla Model 3, it feels good to be buying a used vehicle rather than needing to shop for a NEW car (definite sticker shock). Certainly, it would be nice to have a squeak-less new SUV to replace our 2010 BMW […]
