I've been up to all sorts of fun the past couple weeks but haven't really accomplished much in the way of home improvements in my week away from work. Oh well...summer's coming! Enjoy the pics, Mary... read more

Ah, Super Bowl Sunday. I've really done very little to know what's going on with the whole thing. I talked to my friend Allyn today and she, very helpfully, informed me as to who as actually playing in the game.
