I hope this is the last of cucumber. We're kind of getting sick of it around here.

Yardwork, Ikea and Pumpkins

By
My new parents-in-law got us a dehydrator for the wedding. Knowing we were going to be cleaning up the garden and going to farmer's market, we took a gander at our millionth kitchen device during breakfast.   Scott added granola to his oatmeal.  The oatmeal was rather bland, just the way Brooke likes it.   Scott was actually cleaning up so I had to take a quick photo of him as proof.  Scott told me he was, "putting a blanket down for Peanut," while singing. During the winter months peanut needs a warm place to peer through the window. Seeing as it was nearly November, I setup his blanket for him. Seeing as the farmers market season is dwindling down, we headed to the market...once again. The close proximity to the cities central farmer's market has to be one of the best assets of living in NoMi. We were both amazed by the bounty of produce still on sale. We quickly filled up our first bag and took it back to the car....

Little Bohemia Lodge and Labor Day at the Three Lakes Cottage: 2025 Edition

By
We happened to be driving through Manitowish Waters so figured this was finally my chance to go to Little Bohemia Lodge . Brooke's wanted to go here forever. So why not? Even if you arrive when the restaurant opens, expect to wait. Better yet, make a reservation if you plan on going. Rookie mistake on our part. But I guess it could be worse than hanging at their old school bar with some brewskis and Shirley Temples. There seemed to be a lot of open tables. Sounded like they were understaffed.  Most had went back to school for the season. I did not expect the famed bullet holes to be right next to the tables. There were holes everywhere.

Errands and Painting the Garage Before Winter

By
Meadow and I had a million errands to run on this day. Scott needed trim paint for the garage. Good thing we get the contractor discount at Sherwin Williams. Cause they're super expensive. But are their paints really that much better?    Meadow looked at coats at Goodwill. She didn't like that the sleeves were short on this coat. Agreed.    I love that Goodwill has EV chargers. It seems that no one knows that they are there. We stopped at REI and I liked this 20 degree bag. I don't believe the temperature ratings on these. This is probably good to 40 or 30 degrees. AKA Brooke has major blood circulation issues.   Theo spent the morning playing the Switch, of course. Once he was done gaming, Theo joined us in helping to paint the garage. Scott had all the green done so it was my turn to paint the trim. Don't let them fool you. I painted the rest of the trim. But I suppose the one day they helped sped things up a bit. Break for lunch. The rest of the garage t...
