Happy Little Trees

Look what I did with my brand new $130 "Bob Ross Master Paint Set." (That I got for 40% off.) Look out Da Vinci! I'm proud of the mountain, the water, and the water bank on the left side. The trees and bushes need work. I don't think I did them right. All in all, not bad for someone who never took an art class!

(PS - The good stuff looks better in the person, and the bad stuff looks worse in person. Go figure!)

The Honeymooners Return

Mama and Papa returned yesterday from 3 days in Door County hoping to re-create their original honeymoon experience from 35 years ago. Everything was exactly the same as then, only different. Attached are a few photos and videos to help celebrate and document this marital bliss milestone.

In the Days of Yore

Way way back in the days of yore, before the world had color, in a place 850 miles away, a young, innocent couple joined together in holy matrimony. After the nuptials, the couple headed north to the coast of Maine. Lobsters and clams and other delicacies were enjoyed by all. You guessed it, the Clan McKeever was created. Now, 35 years later, the original founders are heading North again, but now to Door County WI to re-create the original experience. No lobsters, no clams, but great shopping, and other delicacies! Long gone are the $10-15 motel rooms enjoyed by the graduate student and his new basket room bride in 1974. But then, he had to make do on his $3,800 per year research stipend.

Green Yay!

Thanks to good connections, (i.e. Poppy Mac and some lady at the gym), Jason and I were able to go see a preseason Packer game at Lambeau. Packers vs. the Buffalo Bills (minus TO) .... outcome? Victory.

Good seats + beautiful weather + nachos + pretzel with cheese + a Packer victory = Greatness!

PS - we saw a lot of Brett Favre haters
