When I was in 1st grade I got my first watch. It was a rather plain white watch with a basic face. I was probably the only 1st grader in school that was wearing a watch and probably the only one who could even tell time. But I was hooked and I've had an affinity…
Remember when you had to print pictures out before you could see them? It would take weeks before you would know if the picture you took turned out blurry or not...or if your finger was in the way. I remember that, but those days are long gone. Today we can look at the pictures we…
My family and I have recently moved. It was a local move and we moved to a bigger house with a larger yard. Our back yard has a terrific outdoor space and overlooks a beautiful marsh and creek area. Being that we live in Florida, we were quite concerned about bugs and mosquitoes. We were…
