Meet Patches. She’s a mutt and she was free, but she loves Zane. Totally. No one else. She’ll tell me if she has to pee if she can’t find Zane, but Patches is clearly Zane’s puppy. And she’s adorable. Click on this photo to enlarge it and get a good look at those blue eyes!! Look at that brindle in … Read More
My cousin got married over the weekend and I thought I’d post a few shots. This is my favorite, I think. From left to right:my sister, my mom, my brother, me, Zane and Phil. My brother on the left, my husband on the right. Man that’s sexy. Or not. LOLThe Dranchak clan. Damn. There’s a lot of us.At least that’s … Read More
I told you here we’d be going Letterboxing while we were in Missouri–well, we did! The first one we did at Beaver Creek Conservation area was a bust. We followed the excellent directions, but there was no box hidden at the location. It seemed to us that this place was well used by people who maybe don’t have a lot … Read More
So no sooner do we get back from one trip and we’re going on another. That’s okay with me though. We’re going camping as my Mother’s Day present. I wish we camped more often! Here’s some Missouri pictures I haven’ t blogged about yet.
Whew. What a weekend. Drove like 8 hours to Missouri Friday, had dinner with Mike (Phil’s oldest son.) Had a BBQ at Mike’s Frat house (the absolute nicest Frat house ever.) Went letterboxing. One attempt was a bust, but one at the Maramec Springs Park was not only successful, but one of the most beautiful places I’ve seen in Missouri. … Read More

Our un-named Beta fish jumped to his death.He jumped out of his water. I found him on the carpet almost completely dried up.These pictures are right after I threw him back in … Read More
Well, I messed up yesterday. I posted a Saturday picture when I wasn’t finished with Sunday. I’m not going to take you through every moment of my life, just the ones I took pictures of that I haven’t been blogging about. Pretend you care, okay. Humor me. I guess it was a good mistake though because today is Tackle It … Read More
Once again, I have neglected the ten or so people who stop by here regularly. I don’t mean to neglect you. Really. So in honor of your dedication despite my disregard I’ll post a week’s worth of photos (and captions) so you know why I’ve not been here paying attention to you. Forgive me? I think I’ll work backwards. Because … Read More
Near as I can tell, this is what happened. First, Phil called his cousin to make sure the family down south was not floating away. Seems that Bunk lucked out and water didn’t end up in his house after all because a levee broke and relieved the pressure. Now I’m guessing some other families might not have been all too … Read More
I’m making some phone calls now to find out more, but I know Bunk, one of Phil’s grandpa’s brothers, has been forced from his home in Pocahontas, Arkansas because of the floods. He and some neighbors moved out a few days ago. And Phil’s uncle–he was one of those stupid people who drive in the flood waters. Okay, I know … Read More
