Hurricane Helene

Hurricane Helene brought a lot of downed trees and branches in our neighborhood.  Thankfully, it could have been much worse.

Starbuck's Elphaba’s Cold Brew - 1 Star

This drink did not do it for me. Hopefully the movie will be better than the drink!

Dolly Cake

There seem to be more and more of the Dolly branded items on the shelves.  We found this nearly a year ago at Publix and it seems to be a hit.  Note Pete laying in the back hoping to get some cake!

Happy Halloween!

Jeep Spark Plug Project

Jack wanted to try and change the spark plugs in his 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The dealer quoted us $599 for the job so there was money to be saved if he could do it.

We ordered all 16! plugs and torque socket set. ~6 hours later he completed the job and did great!
