Late in this trip our T@B's ALDE system's reservoir developed a leak. That gave us one more good reason to come to northeastern Ohio. We contacted Austin and made arrangements to bring Gigi back to the factory for repair this morning. It gave us the chance to also see...

Twisted Time Warp

Five of us piled into Dave's as yet unnamed sparkly blue Jeep Patriot and headed out on an adventure reminiscent of so many of our family adventures in Big Red, our 1978 Jeep Cherokee. As we rolled we rocked to Walk the Moon, The Kingsmen, Cindy Lauper, The...

Awaiting the Word

Awaiting the Word

Our task for today is to enjoy our surroundings as we wait to learn when we can bring Eric in for his new device. It's been a pleasant morning. Some sun, some clouds, moderate temperatures, a good amount of shade as long as we are willing to move our chairs every so...
