This morning we had a tentative date to go see some Raptors. We ran some errands and decided to make a loop around the Futenma flight line to kill some time. Normally car rides are sort of relaxing because Mackenzie will sleep, Nathan will just watch out the window and I can just sort of [...]

I joined Facebook. Actually, it appears I “joined” (and I use that term loosely because by joined I mean I signed up once and never went back) in 2006. A few weeks ago I got an email from my neighbor adding me as a friend . Then Stephanie went and joined, then my one friend [...]
