Well, the oyster festival last Thursday was fantastic, and Saturday's boat tour went well, both with fine weather. We have a bit of rain today, but we need it and it should clear up for the weekend, though it's supposed to be cooler - more seasonal, actually as it has...

October is here - my favorite month! So it's the inspiration for this week's quote. And it is a gorgeous day - clear, mild, sunny - and I'm sitting out on the deck enjoying it while solving crossword puzzles. The weather looks like it will be like this for the next...

I looked at the calendar and said "It's Thursday already!? So apologies for the delayed post. Let's get to this one quickly. Name: Workplace Bias Grid size: 15x15 Entries: 74 Difficulty: Medium Hard (my solve time: 7:27) Well, this is an unusual puzzle all around -...

My schedule was a bit less hectic this week so I should actually have this teed up to post right around the time Barb sends the puzzle out. We're in full September here, and I'm loving it, even though it has been a bit rainy this week. Not a lot worth mentioning going...

It's been a busy August and it's not over yet. I mentioned my annual Port Huron road trip last week; this past week was a big retirement/milestone birthday party (with a surprise musical guest!), and next weekend is my nephew's wedding, another (relatively short) road...

I made my annual trip to Port Huron, Michigan - just across the St. Clair River from Sarnia, ON - last weekend. Still didn't have time to cross the bridge, but I did take a boat tour of the river and we sailed very close to the Sarnia shore so I guess I was...

Well, August is starting to August again - hot and sticky with the threat of afternoon thundershowers. I can handle it as I know September is just around the corner. My whirlwind trip to New York City last weekend for Lollapuzzoola was fun - nice train ride up and...

We've had a pleasantly cool (for August) week or so, and it's been relatively dry so I've been able to spend lots of time out working in the yard, sitting on the deck, and enjoying family and friends. I hope the same for you. Next weekend I'll be competing in...
