Date Night: Harvest at Bent’s Opera House in Medina

I am officially POSITIVE for Covid-19. Funny how seeing two sets of pink lines can mean dramatically different things, yet yield a similar

One Year Ago Today…(and Happy Birthday, Scott!)

Ahhhhhh. December 1st. The holidays are in full swing, our tree is up and lighted, and my very best friend turns 38 today. Sorry, Scott, it’s not until after 50 that we start keeping mum about age ;) I have waxed poetic about the love of my life on his birthday (here,
