The Minnows Will Eat You Alive
By
We walked into McDonald’s this morning and within 30 seconds I know it was one of “THOSE” days. The line was long, everyone behind the counter was running around like they were on board the Titanic and the ship was sinking quickly. The manager was on the … [Read more...]
Rainy Day Memories
By
I was up early this morning enjoying the rain. The smell in the air isn't of creosote (which isn't a bad smell) it is of fall leaves. A familiar smell, which brings back many wonderful memories. Off to fill the tank as sprinkles began, then to redbox to … [Read more...]
Amazon Review for a Nikon Lens Cap
