Life!!!

Camping life, that is. :)

It was an awesome weekend. My wife works 5 days a week, mostly from 4pm to 10pm, any day of the week including weekends. This was the first weekend in the 3 months she started that job that she did NOT work on Saturday and Sunday. Since my own day job is from Monday to Wednesday, I can do anything I want on Fridays. I called my boss, explained my wife went back to work this afternoon, so I could take today off.

The camping has a little river, no more than 3 feet deep, and that's only for a short part, the rest is mostly 1 foot of less, so a little floating canoe is a very funny ride on it. With campfires at night, marshmallows, hundreds of children running around, it was a perfect family weekend.

My and son Dave got sunburns in the back of our necks, nothing serious, just a bit annoying. We had brought mosquito repellant, and that was useful. There was a thunderstorm last night, but we still were able to do our campfire between rain showers, the rest of the weekend was perfect.

When the first boy didn't see a tiny sprout after the second day, he dug up the seed to see if it had sprouted. Each day he dug ...

Have you noticed the severe changes in our weather conditions lately?

During this time, acne is a common problem; in severe cases, it can even be traumatising. As a teen, you cannot help your changing hormones that are one of the main causes of skin pr...

What mosquitoes do best?

What mosquitoes do best? There are over 3,500 species of mosquitoes despite our efforts to rid ourselves of them. We spray them, study them, poke and prod them to no avail…they are still a pain in our butts, legs, and arms! The difference between us and mosquitoes...
