Did You Know?

Take a close look at this picture.

Was I the only one that missed that Nathan had a go-tee? The funny thing is...

I was THERE!

Lost and GOTTEN!

So several weeks ago we were up visiting Grandma and Grandpa Winston's. Amanda was preparing for the day in the bathroom. Ella was helping by watching her rings. She had them in her hands and was going towards Amanda when she stumbled. One, or more, of the rings flew out of her hands. One of them, yes, it would be the wedding ring, landed in the air vent that comes out from the floor. This air vent did not have one of those 'traps'. It was just a tube that acted like one of the slides you go down at a waterpark.
I tried reaching my arm down to get it. I was able to get my entire arm down put the angle was too steep. The ring slid further down than what even my "monkey arms", as Nathan once called them, could reach. We also tried a vacuum. It was Grandpa's idea and was a good idea, but didn't work. Luckily they had a crawl space. It was quite clean down there. I ended up having to undo the tubing from the vent and retape it back up. Anyways, here is some pictures of the experience.

Christmas is Coming!

Ok, I admit, I have been a bad boy this year. With Christmas coming up and all I don't expect much. It is said when you are a bad boy you get a lump of coal. If that is what I deserve so be it. Since I am admitting, and not denying, my bad behavior this past year I think I should at least get to choose the lump of coal I should get. Besides, I think I have a good record up until now. So Santa, I have gone to the liberty of taking a picture of the lump of coal I would like. This picture can be found below.

A 55 pound lump of coal from the Titanic. Cost: $500,000.

*Did you know that the only artifact you can actually buy from 'Titanic' is coal?

What is this look? You tell me!

Mohawks!

Gardening

This is our first tomato. Granted it should be the size of a fist, but that is beside the point. It tasted D-licious! The skin is tough though. We have also harvested two more since this one. They were both a bit smaller, one was even smaller than a grape. They both tasted good, the skin was still tough. There are a few more ready to be harvested, plus more growing.

We expect we aren't getting the size we are suppose to because of the fact of the scorching hot sun. While at the 'Barnes' Family Reunion' they missed out on some badly needed water. Yes, we did have somebody watching them, we aren't plant killers.

The zucchini and squash plants weren't as tough as the tomato plant. The stems were split and we ended up uprooting them and planting some more. Which took at least half the time to sprout as the earlier ones and are doing quite well.
