School’s Out For Summer!
Well, that’s it. It’s over. We graduated the kiddies on Friday and we had a couple of mandatory teacher workdays, but I’m now officially done for the summer. Sort of. I’m teaching summer school in a couple of weeks. Got talked into that somehow. 🙁 We’re getting things ready to go to NY for a […]
Memorial Day Weekend
It is the last day of Memorial Day weekend. The actual Memorial Day. We went to the beach on Saturday and stayed for the night. There were millions of beach party kids and it was packed out. We had the pleasure of staying next door to some drunk White Trash couples who got into an […]
Hanging Rock
On Saturday (yeah, I know, it’s Wednesday now….I’m BUSY!)… On Saturday, we (me, Derek and Billy N.) went to Hanging Rock State Park, all the way up in Stokes County. We got lost on our hike (again) and wound up 4.5 miles out of our way.So, due to time constraints, we went back to our […]
Dirt Pile
This is the dirt pile that adorns the side of the road in our neighborhood. Quite a lovely landscape, if I do say so myself. It was formerly a generously wooded area, and a shield between us and I-40. They rezoned the areas and a banking center will soon be located there. But, in the […]
Rupert!!!
Rupert won the “America’s Choice” award on Survivor last night. I love Rupert. We watched him in Pearl Islands, and we were very sad when he was voted off. And we watched him in All-Stars, and he was again, voted off (this time much later in the game). But, he got his reward in the […]
Pilot Mountain
Derek and I hiked up Pilot Mountain on Saturday. He had just returned from NYC and I from Raleigh, so we were pretty tired. We also haven’t had many carbs in about a week, so we started off slow. We missed the start of the trail (I do not know how!), and wound up hiking […]
News Updates

It’s Raining, It’s Pouring…
So, we went to the beach this weekend and it rained pretty much the whole time. It wasn’t very warm. Well, it cleared up a little and warmed up a little — Just as we were leaving. It was a pretty good time. I got to relax. Eat out. Play board (bored?) games. And I […]

Derek and I are headed to the beach this afternoon, just as soon as school lets out. His parents won an auction-fundraiser, and obtained a beach house for the weekend. They are going, as well as, his sister and brother-in-law.That, my friends, is all.
