Last week was a busy week. Amber and I took a trip to Ft. Wayne to visit some friends and had a great time. We even “won” their daughter in a bowling match! Shortly after that I went to Maumee Bay State Park for an ICAA conference where I was in charge of A/V for [...]

Yesterday we went up to the new Bass Pro shop in Rossford, Ohio near Toledo, but before we took off I had my dad take a listen to a new noise my car was making. We decided to check out the spark plugs after we got back from stocking up on fishing supplies.

April 3rd, 2008 · No Comments

Not My Secret but My Secret Pleasure

December 30th, 2007 · No Comments

3D Stikfa Wall Hanging

November 10th, 2007 · 1 Comment

While cleaning off my desk at work Friday morning I came across a broken picture frame which I had meant to glue back together some time ago.  I was just about to through it out when I noticed a pack of 3M wall hanging adhesive strips, commonly used for posters.   I started to look around [...]
