Walk for MS

March 8th, 2008 . by Bruce

With Lisa’s recent MS scare the past few months she’s been doing a lot of research into the disease. We are so very thankful to have finally ruled it out just this past week after her final MRI and Neurologist visits. However, we know some people who have been affected by MS in their lives to one degree or another. One of them is Liz, who has two family members with MS. She arranges a team to do a MS walk each year and we’ve decided to join her and many of our other friends to do that walk this year as a family.

If you care to, we’d be very happy to anyone who’d like to donate to a worthy cause through our walk. Feel free to follow any of our family member’s donation links below and make any size donation. Donations are, of course, tax deductible.

The walk is April 12th at the Columbus Zoo. You can donate anytime before that date.

Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow!!

March 8th, 2008 . by Bruce

Good old Ohio. This past Monday was 65 degrees out. This Saturday morning we measured 11 inches in our lawn & drive. We shoveled for 90 minutes and in that time another inch dropped on the driveway that we had to shovel again. We measured the lawn afterwards and sure enough, as of 11am we’re now at 12 inches…and it hasn’t let up yet!

Snow is fun and all, but it’s time for spring, dang it! On top of that, our very good friend Amy planned a surprise 40th B-day party for her “significant other” and our other dear friend Kurt — which she has now canceled due to this crazy winter weather. She had to let Kurt know about the party at the last minute this morning because of her concern with the hazardous weather…and she needed his help to call just over 100 people to cancel! Dang Ohio weather!!!

Some pics from our shoveling this morning…first poor Dozer trying to keep his belly above the snow so he could have a morning potty trip! LOL

Snow piled up in the driveway after shoveling for nearly 30 minutes just to clear the garage doors.

Bruce, glorious white head of ice hair - literally!!

Lisa getting the sad call from Amy declaring the surprise party is canceled (postponed) and no longer a surprise.

Pathway to the house…all that snow fell in a 24 hour period!!
