My Spoiled Chiweenie
I posted a few years ago about L.B. and his infatuation with his "blanket", which is actually a Queen sized down comforter that we don't use anymore. At the time, we were so rudely taking it away from his crate to use in the camper since it's so warm. However, he did...
What’s Happening?
All has been quiet on the blog lately, but I figure it's time to give an update on recent happenings. First of all, the blog has moved, yet again. I had moved back to Blogger a while back when we were expiring our mesker.us domain. But, I didn't like the restrictions...
Kayaking with Manatees

Casey County Apple Festival
Saturday I traveled with my Mom and Aunt Cindy to Liberty, Kentucky to pick up my Mama Rosie and go to the Casey County Apple Festival. I had never been to this one before, I do love festivals, and it did not disappoint! It was small, but had a lot of different...
Pantry Door Updates
I continued the rubbed oil bronze updates with our mirrored pantry doors that are off to the side of our living area of the main floor. We removed the doors and the top trim piece so we could take them outside to paint. I then taped newspaper over the mirrors. Since...
Kayaking Floyds Fork at The Parklands
This past weekend we tried some moving water kayaking at The Parklands of Floyds Fork. We put in at Creekside and paddled to the Fisherville takeout. The water, running at 94 CFS, was up just enough for us to do a four mile run without having to walk the kayaks over...
