  1. Q.C. December 29, 2008

    I can’t actually remember what I got this sticker off of.  All I know is it was an article of clothing.  That’s not really the important part to me, it’s not what led me to ...

  2. Holy Birds!! December 27, 2008

    In early December we were in downtown Minneapolis and saw thousands of birds in Elliott Park. It was disgusting and amazing all at once. It’s a little unclear, but the black dots on the trees ...

  3. Some Traditions December 26, 2008

  8. Warning: Very Sad News. December 7, 2008

    To preface this, I hate to share such bad news with people, and I especially hate to post something so sad on our website -especially around Christmas time.  But it happened, and it was big ...

  9. La-tay December 3, 2008

    On our recent trip to PA via Michigan and Wisconsin (thanks again to Ben and Sara for being welcoming hosts -and serving GREAT waffles!) we stopped just past Indiana, in a little town on the ...

  10. Jupiter and Venus December 1, 2008

    So if you happen to read this before you go to bed tonight, make sure you take a look outside at the moon.  Just below it you’ll see two planets quite clearly… Jupiter and Venus.  ...
