Memoirs of a Redhead

This past weekend I spent some time in Philadelphia with my parents and my brother and sister in law.  Congratulations to Tiffany for getting her Masters Degree!  …and a 4.0, at that! It was Father’s Day and the Tigers were playing the Phillies.  What a great day for me to…

Meet Kay.  She’s my beautiful goddess statue. A few years ago when I was at my grandma’s house (the one that passed away in January), I commented on her statue.  I said that I liked it and I asked her if I could have it someday.  She said that she…

Check this out!  This guy’s wheelchair accidentally got attached to the front of this truck…and he got a free ride:) Read the story here.
