Gambling isn't my thing. I'm too much of a chicken that I'll lose my life savings (which ain't much), if I start. However, for as a fund raiser, where any money I give the "bank" goes to a good cause, I will participate. I'll even ask my sister and brother-in-law, Randi and Shaun to join me.

Super 8 Rewind: Reliving Movie Trip
I'm not sure I agree with John Denver, that West Virginia is almost heaven, but it is a good location for filming a sci-fi movie, specifically Weirton, WV. The movie was Super 8, an adolescent come of age, with a little B-Movie zombie action and a very misunderstood alien. It's a really fun movie to watch.

Although it never worked out where there was an adult prom that we could go to, that changed on Saturday, February 22, 2016. The … [Read more...]

The temperature was 16 degrees, with a real feel of 8 degrees.The weather was snowy, not blizzard conditions, but it was coming down pretty good.That is when Bobby, my husband, and I found Chill, an Artisan Ice Cream Company on the square in downtown Medina, Ohio.

Ice, Ice (and More Ice) Baby! Chillin’ Out at Medina Ice Festival
February 13, was a perfect day to view the ice sculpture displays at the 2016 Medina (Ohio) Ice Festival. It was freezing, so there was no fear of the sculptures melting. It was snowing, which added to the charm. It was Valentines weekend and I was with my wonderful husband, Bobby, which made being there romantic, even if it was freezing and snowing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QE48zv9Xudo The weather didn't seem to keep many people away. There were plenty checking out the different … [Read more...]
