Slug Bug! Smack! No Hit-Backs!When the kids were younger and we were out on a Saturday adventure, they’d play slug bug. If you haven’t played, the first one to see a Beetle smacks one of the others and you’re free from hit-backs. That’s the rule. Not any VW mind you, just Beetles, old or new.Now they’re all grown up and it's been a few years since we've piled into the Explorer to head out on a Saturday. Shannon lives in Hawaii on Kauai, Jeff and Paige in Newcastle. They’re Gen Y Millennials in their 20’s now with lives of their own.It’s funny the silly little things a dad remembers, the memories you cherish.

Remember the days when moving meant calling a bunch of strong  friends and bribing them with beer and pizza?  Boy, I do!  In a strange way, moving was fun!  It was always an adventure.  When I was in college, I moved so often that I had a set of boxes that nested together and fit under the bed or in the closet.  Everything I owned could fit in those boxes or in the backseat of some friend’s car.  Life was so simple!  Things have become much more complicated since the good ol’ days of college.  Since then, I have acquired furniture, kitchen gadgets and small appliances for every task, dishes, books, DVDs, electronics, “collectables”, and just plain stuff.  What was once a simple process is now so much more difficult.  Back then, I could move in one car trip.  I could do it all myself, wi... 04/12/2012

Microsoft Visitor Center with my GrandsonMicrosoft Visitor Center with my GrandsonMy grandson is here for spring break. He is called “Microsoft” sometimes, for the unusual questions he asks.The other day I was at my computer.
