My Little Swinger
Not that kinda swinger, you sicko!
Everyone knows that I frequent Craigslist and find free stuff, like mowers… I’ve been called “The King Of FREE Stuff!” by some friends. Not sure that is a good thing, but I have found some good deals.
Recently I came across another killer deal (AKA FREE)…a swingset!

R.I.P. Buddy
We had to do the hardest thing we have ever had to do this morning… Buddy is now running and playing in the plush green grass in doggy heaven.
Buddy has been sick for a long time. He has had epilepsy for many years and needed to take some pretty powerful drugs to keep from seizing. [...]
Is There A Way, It Could Stay, Independence Day?
Momma and I ventured our way deep into the mob of people who take over down town every year to catch a glimpse of the colorful explosions…and a mob it was! From young ganstas to old bitties, everyone was in attendance.
We found a great spot, on top of a bridge about 200 yards or so [...]
Dad’s Can Do Anything!
Part of being a Dad, at least for me, is getting to fix things and put things together. Sometimes it can be fun! For example, putting together your kids first bike, easy bake oven, or something else that you know they will love.

Ace, of course, could care less about the actual game, [...]
Good Things Come To Those Who Wait
We have been in the market for a pool. We want to get one of those above ground pools to put in the back yard for Ace and Momma to play in during the day while I am at work.
We got the whole pool idea about two months ago when it started getting warm. We [...]
Why You Don’t Drive Behind The Line Painting Truck On The Highway
When we went on our trip to Pittsburgh to pick up the mower deck for the John Deere, we saw this car in a parking lot where we stopped for lunch. Thought it was funny and had to share it…
Dead In The Spotlight
No, I’m not dead. I’ve just been ultra busy lately. Priorities suck! If only I could blog all day, every day…I would be a happy man.
Just wanted to give a quick shout out to Jeremy over at Discovering Dad. He does an awesome series every Saturday highlighting some really cool Dad’s. This past [...]
