Birds in our backyard

Our new BBQ

We gave Alex our old gas grill and then bought a Green Mountain Grill pellet bbq. I now need to relearn cooking as this is a whole new way to bbq....slow cooking.

My project for this week.

My rain barrel for saving water and watering our deck plants this coming summer.

Arizona wedding, March 2013, what a blast!

Christmas 2012 at our house.

Thanksgiving day 2012

The day was nice enough for a few outdoor pictures at Steve & Vicki's place.

R.I.P. Max

Yesterday we had to say "farewell" to our dog Max. Bladder cancer got the best of him as he approached his 14th birthday (that makes him 78 in dog years). Lori and I will both miss him. Since I retired, he had become my "little shadow" as he wanted to be everywhere I was.
