Coming home from work Friday night there was a pretty bad accident on the way into our neighborhood. Click this link to see where. Apparently there were 2 pick up trucks trying to go around that corner at the same time and neither one liked where the yellow lines were… One truck that seemed to…

Another weekend, another bus trip. This time to Stowe again. Incredible conditions. They’ve had 165″ of snow so far this winter. Unfortunately it’s warm there this week, and supposedly raining today, but the 2 times I’ve been there this year it’s been like western conditions. The terrain at Stowe is also awesome, I just wish…

Nikki and I both had a long hectic day. We had another baby appointment in Providence at 3:45pm. The problem with that is they’re ALWAYS an hour late. Sure enough we walked out right at 5pm. On top of that my car is getting it’s 100k service done to it a Yarrowsport, so Nikki had…

Wow, Lars sent me a link he thought I might be interested in… This is truly amazing. It’s an online vector art generator that works from simple bitmaps. It actually works better using small files because they upload and convert faster. Once you have a vector it can be as big as you want, so…

Well I’m working on yet another PAD this year.  For those that don’t know what that is, it’s a Photo A Day.  If you haven’t noticed, up top there is a page for it.  If you go in there you’ll see this years PAD on top, and last years under it.  I’ve tried this 2…

Well it’s the last regular season Pat’s game. Yes the Packers are my team, but the Patriots are my other team, and I’ve enjoyed season tickets there with my Dad back in 1995. Will Brady get the TD record? Will Moss get the TD catches record? Will the be perfect? All I know is I…

So I went to Okemo Wednesday. It was a beautiful day on the hill. No drama getting there as I remembered everything this time… It was about 20ºF on the hill, so a comfortable temp. I skied with the camera again, so I came home with more pictures. The snow was only alright… I love…

Merry Christmas to anyone out there reading the blog!!! We’ve had a busy, but very fun couple of days. Christmas ever we took my parents to Ikea for the first time for fun (we like their stuff and my parents wanted to see why). Then we had a party the Katie and Matt’s in the…

MMMMMmmmmmmm Taco Salad!!! The guys over on NSOP were talking about enchiladas today, but I’m a horrible cook. I do however know how to cook taco salad, and Nikki said we had the fixin’s so here you go, Taco Salad… And it was delicious… Even Baby v1.0 liked it as he started kicking at dinner.…

Well, at least for me it is. I finally got out for the first trip of the year. I escort bus trips with New England Action Sports. That means I’m the guy (or at least one of the guys/gals) who shows up a bit early and checks names off the list. Sure there’s more to…

NOT!!!! OK, Rhode Islanders have always had issues with snow. Not quite sure why though??? This is New England right? It does snow here EVERY winter right? But still, ever since the “Blizzard of ’78” they all go crazy here whenever snow is even forecast. We’re talking stores sold out of milk and bread, and…

With all the craziness that’s been going on and with how tired Nikki is now getting earlier in the evening we’ve missed a bunch of belly shots/updates. We finally made some time this weekend to get some shots in. Check them out, it’s really amazing to see how much bigger she’s gotten in the last…

Well I always know when it’s almost Christmas because we need to go murder a tree, drag it in the house and dress it up (how humiliating lol)… Nikki and I had a great time Saturday going out to Big John Leyden’s tree farm is West Greenwich RI. Make sure you check out the link,…
