Springbreak 17 Mar 2013 | 10:51 am
The boy’s spring break is drawing to a close: I think he’s spent 2, maybe 3 nights at home out of 9. His girlfriend is home from Virginia for the same break, and they’ve pretty much been inseparable....
Downton 17 Mar 2013 | 10:46 am
The wife decided to see what all the fuss was about, so we’ve been watching Downton Abbey the last couple of weeks. Just about done now: one episode left. I’m less annoyed by these characters than I ...

Winter! 8 Dec 2012 | 10:53 pm
I drove home from Seattle last night, 400+ miles, about half (and all three mountain passes) in blizzard conditions. And found nearly a foot of snow on the ground at home. And it’s going to snow eve...

So, there’s a new grocery store in town: Natural Grocers. I’d been wondering what the thinking was, behind the location, and trying to make it here at all. It’s fairly close to our existing, local, ...
