When they say to play dead and the bear won’t hurt you….  Does this work against a car coming at you on the road?

Our next toy

Our next toy for the whole family is available in stores tomorrow. I’m unlikely to get one as they’re probably going to be sold out before I get there. I’ll stop by the store an hour before they open. If there’s a huge line, I’ll just have to wait.

Movie I saw last night

This is just about the best clip from the movie I saw last night called “The Last Mimzy”
Tracy forced me to watch it. It wasn’t long before I was tied up in it and asking for her to pause it when I went to make popcorn or to go to the bathroom. It [...]

Igloo

    I took a few hours on Saturday afternoon to spend some time with Stormy building an igloo.

    It’s of the traditional design. Round and domed with the shoot-style entrance. This puppy took close to three hours to build and my legs are suffering for it today. It’s a lot [...]
