Andy celebrates Halloween by nailing a three turn ghost :)

Bad kitty! But sure cute!

Spacing out my favorite ice cream...

It only comes around for a month or two every year. So I buy several and reward myself on the months I meet my goals at work.

Strawberry chocolate chunk. The best part about Graeter's is the chocolate bar size chunks you find in the middle!

Our little neighborhood and the fall colors. A good combo. :)

Playing around with the full moon and long exposure

What it takes to make a teenage boy into his Halloween character...

Introducing the boy’s friends to B&B brunch

It made for quite a stack of sandwiches!

The fall colors are starting to pop, once again

2018-10-28

The boys had some friends over, yesterday. They brought a few goodies...!

Bags and briefcases full of cubes, skill toys, etc. Fun for all!

Andy’s making more clever sketches

Andy reaches another milestone...!

THIS looks like trouble!

We got some surprise cousin time, last night. Of course, Skyline was involved!

Johnny's latest cool shot...

Rain, on a sunroof, while driving

Andy made his own set of thumb chucks

Bought a steel rod and went to it, in the workshop!

We’re having a family work day, across the street, this weekend

My mother in-law knows how to get me to participate. ;) This is her shopping list.

The cats all seem to love this chair!

Just a pretty, fall scene

Does Shadow realize what’s happening here?!

She was fine, until she fully woke up... Then she had something to say about the situation...

Such beautiful days this past weekend

Percy and Pepper, pals!

Our display from the AMTS show, last week

Our partner, Voelker, put together a nice setup.

Finally got the fire going.

Sharing the feather wand...

Well, that’s just dandy...

They couldn't get in the end zone. I lost count of the 1st and goals that ended in field goals or worse. They started a rally in the 4th by finally scoring a touch down or two and that turned into Purdue scoring FOUR touch downs...

They fell apart all right...! Like over the last two weeks.

Oh well, wouldn't be college football if we didn't have something to complain about, right?! :)

Just a little look out at the horizon, a couple mornings ago.

Before, during and after our three bonfires yesterday.

Andy was nice enough to bring and make s'mores for us too! :)

Andy made these tiny Minecraft figures, from paper.

They're only about an inch tall. Steve's arms even move.

Burn baby, burn.

Just chillin' while my three huge piles finish smoldering... ;)

Happy birthday, Ian! So fun to enjoy your birthday party all together.

Great to see the man you are becoming. Keep up the good work. Praying for you and your college decisions.

Cats, cats everywhere. Even laying on each other.

Sometime difficult to see where one ends and the other begins...

Johnny seems to be doing well at work.

His supervisors and bosses all have good things to say! Makes me proud to see him carving out his own success.

God says, “Happy Friday”!

Julie called me over to see the sunrise, this morning.

Sharing.

I think I settled on my favorite watch face.

All the info I might want, at one quick glance.

You can visit the Dayton AMTS show, today, to see the latest Cognex in action.

Falling asleep in the middle of raising your arm to say, “fill my bowl this full, with cat food...”

Johnny’s learning to represent real objects in his graphic design class.

Top, an imported picture of a banana. Bottom, his drawing of it. Pretty well done, I'd say. :)

My sister performing the song she wrote. Proud brother!

"Peace Like a River"

Aliens are among us...

Comparing my recent catch to my first...

Both in Lake Erie :)

Having a calculator watch takes me right back to the 80’s!

I guess I'm just as much geek now as I was then. 🤓

2018-10-15

People as far as you could see, yesterday, at the Waynesville Sauerkraut Festival!

2018-10-14

Andy and I took a little drive to Cincinnati

We finally found a Target that was carrying the new Sweets kendama. Not a bad deal at $15. Pretty cool design. They've been able to Bring them down from the normal $40 range with a little mass production.

Another of my Emily favs!

The rest of my district meeting pictures...

As you know, we had a team meeting and outing, this past week. It was on Lake Erie's Put-in-Bay. You can click the link below to see some more of the fun. I spared you pictures of the meeting figuring you would enjoy the outing part a bit more... ;)
