Throwback Thursday – #tbt – 20 Years of Seasonal Camping (2003-2023)

Back from our most recent camping stretch but bittersweet as my inlaws decided to pull the pin after twenty years of seasonal camping. (This has been coming for awhile but still tough that the moment finally arrived.) So much of our week away was watching as they listed (and sold) their camper, packed up everything […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Sea Urgency (January 2012)

“Sea Urgency” instead of “Sea Urchin” is a malapropism that Sasha coined in Mexico but it applies for this picture taken during a snorkeling excursion in Hawaii in January 2012 long before she was born…

Sasha did a “photo shoot” with Charlie the other day and I was pretty impressed with the results…

Track and Field Day

Managed to pop over to see a bit of Sasha’s year-end track and field meet during my lunch hour today.  My folks were in so they were also able to swing by then even got to give Sasha a ride home after. Great day!

Saturday Snap – “Sasha’s, Not Yours”

As she gains more independence, we’ve occasionally been letting Sasha walk to the nearby convenience store to use her allowance money to buy a treat. Apparently that independence also extends to letting everyone in the family know exactly who bought the unique Warheads-flavoured soda!

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – “I Am *Not* Napping IN Here!” (May 2013)

I feel like posting this picture online is enough to get a call to the authorities! 😉

Saturday Snap – Sasha’s Birthday Sleepover

Booked Sweet Dreamz Slumber, a local company that sets up tents with lights, banners, serving trays outside the tent, a ceiling light show device and more for Sasha’s 10th birthday party sleepover. Was cool to have them arrive one-by-one and go downstairs to hear things like: “Oh. My. God.”, “This is AMAZING!”, “So cool”.

10 Reasons We’ve Ended Up With The World’s Most Bougie Dog

We got the first delivery of a monthly subscription of dog toys & treats called “Woof Pack” today and as I thought about how neither myself (“Beer of the Month“) nor Shea (“Wine of the Month“) or Pace (“Soda Pop of the Month“) or Sasha (“Japanese Snack of the Month“) have ever had a subscription […]

Artificial Intelligence Charlie Echo Versus The Real Thing

Back in December, I was playing with AI generated images and Sasha suggested “Charlie in the Snow.” This is one of the images it came up with and it felt appropriate today with the late April snowstorm we’re enduring… I didn’t get any pics today (kids took him out walking tonight instead of Shea or […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – The Last of Us Isn’t Just A Popular TV Show (Oct, Dec 2022, Apr 2023)

Pace in early October… (Shockingly?) Shea and I didn’t test positive until December…though having a teen who pretty much self-isolates 99% of the time anyhow did help keep the rest of us safe when Pace was the first positive in the family.) And even though she ended up getting the PCR test twice in the […]
