Breaking from Tradition
Did you know the word for March is Barbeque?! I would have guessed something like Spring or Rain-showers. Geezeum crow, I was waay off.
Last week, my former-nemesis-now-friend Todd Yezefski brought his
This past Sunday was of course Easter. (I was told the earliest Easter since 1818 and the next one this early will be well past our lifetime in the 2200s!) Mayo and I played host to Robbie, Mayo’s brother Gehn, and our

Alas, it was no help.
