For those of you who may be lacking in powers of observation, I just got married, and between that and camp, my internet access will be quite limited, so don’t expect quick responses. There will be several honeymoon posts to come though, fear not (And not about that you pervert).

I just bought 2 Midland GXT635 Radios for camp this summer! And then, just in case I hadn’t been loose enough with my money, I ordered 2 headsets for them! I’m pretty excited. Hopefully these will work better than the last ones I got excited about (At least this time I can return them if [...]

You are looking at the new debtor of Amazon.com. Well… you’re not really looking at me… you’re kinda just reading what… you know, nevermind. What I’m trying to say is that Amazon owes me 36 cents! All because someone followed one of my links to Amazon and then bought something! So I put a search [...]

Boy it’s wet.
It’s so wet, that it’s early afternoon here at camp, and I have nothing to do. We got all the inside stuff done, and all that’s left to do is… out there. We didn’t quit raking until hypothermia became a real possibility. I think we just want to be done with leaves, so [...]

10,000 square feet of shingles: About a million dollars
Nails, staples, and other supplies: Probably a hundred dollars
480 hours in volunteer labor: Free
Actually finishing a 10,000 square foot roof in 1 weekend: Priceless.
There are some things money can’t buy. For everything else… you hope you win the lottery.

I’d like you to know that today is April 13th, and I just drank a half-pint carton of milk that was supposed to expire on February 26th. It was fine.
Those folks at Country Fresh really don’t mess around.

Well, apparently, the weather doesn’t care about what I think. The weather just does whatever the weather wants to do. So in spite of me, and in direct violation of my verbal commands, it snowed. And it snowed and it snowed and it snowed. It wasn’t like Colorado, where when you least expect it to [...]

Well, I’m heading up to camp in about 4 and a half hours… right after TJ’s birthday party. Then I’ll be flooring, raking and dumping leaves until my back falls off. But I have a feeling it’s gonna be a lot of fun, because there will be a lot of people there, and it’ll feel [...]

Well, I announced a week or so ago that there would be no more snow in my area of Michigan until next winter. That’s it, we’re done, no more. Some people replied with “Yeah, that’d be nice” while others simply laughed. Then a couple days ago, the forecast was calling for snow next weekend. Apparently [...]

Today was amazing! The sun was out all day, the snow is all but gone, the lake is thawing… It’s amazing. I basically just wore my coat because it was slightly more comfortable than walking around in a short-sleeved shirt.
But the weather wasn’t even the best part. The MISSION was the best. Actually, I went [...]
