Spring is coming and I have been eyeballing the garden beds in my backyard and thinking about what I want to do this year. Last year I hardly did anything. I was just too busy with other stuff to put in the time to really prepare and plant much of a garden. I have gotten […]
So the new year is still fresh and you still plan to live 2019 as healthy as possible. Right off the bat you have chosen a serious challenge. The single biggest thing that impacts your health is what you put into your mouth and allow into your lungs. It seems super obvious that the first step […]

I started Christmas early this year and ended up getting one of the best presents ever. Getting there was an entertaining journey however. Last weekend I took Friday off and flew up to Seattle to visit my grand kids for an early Christmas. From the get-go this trip was filled with excitement. I got to […]
