Billy Jacobs

I had wonderful day today roaming the back roads of north eastern Ohio with my friend Lisa. We had lunch at a cute little restaurant and visited the Billy Jacobs gallery in Navarre, saw a bunch of cool historical buildings, stopped at a cheese shop and a winery and even saw sasquatch and got a baby bunny fix!

Happy Father's Day

Drove to Dayton and visited with my dad in the morning and then Elisha and Brooks came over in the afternoon. Andrew talked to his dad on the phone. A good day!

Fridays Off

Yay I have Friday's off during the summer.  Spend the morning at Darby walking the trail and looking at the work Andrew has been doing over the past couple years in the park.  Prairie flowers were starting to bloom and it was a nice morning.

Enjoying the Yard

Most nights you can find us yard sitting with a beverage and a good book. Andrew has made it into a place that we don't often want to leave. Especially relaxing after a long day at work.

Clear Creek on a 95 Degree Day

Too hot to do anything except take a dip into the creek.  Good dogs just enjoy being with us!

Surf's Up

Read a book about a guy who taught his dog to surf.  Thought I would work on it with these two for Michigan this summer.  A Whammo boogie board is just the right size. They loved it. Just want to get them to where they will stand on it in the water and let me pull them around.
