Easter Egg Hunt - Geocaching Style

I picked Jacob up this afternoon and asked him if he would like to go on an Easter egg hunt. He said sure. We traveled to Jack Rabbit Trail off the 60 Freeway. When I made the turn off the freeway he gave me the look of, what type of Easter egg hunt were you […]

Airsoft Warrior

Eric went airsofting with some of his buddies today. They play in an area that has taggers that come through and paint a couple of walls and buildings. So as they are taking a break, a Sheriff’s car shows up. It could be for the taggers as young men playing war games in a wooded […]

Canned Opossum

A few nights ago we left a couple of bags of old popcorn on the back porch. They were to make it to the trash can. However, before they made it, the bags became torn open and popcorn tossed across the back porch. I cleaned up the mess last night and wondered what had made […]

Thunder, Lightning and Rain

I awoke this morning to thunder, lightning and the sound of rain. It was a nice change. When I left to do a quick service project at the church house it was cloudy. When I left the building, the sun was out and I could see that the mountain around had a light dusting of […]

Boys, Trees and Wild Animals

We have a Raccoon problem in our neighborhood. There have been a few around for years, but it seems to have multiplied in the past few months. The trash cans get knocked over more often and vegetables get eaten out of the garden.

Raccoon Devastation

Last night I received a call from a […]
