Strawberry Milk Chronicles: Tie Dye Sunday
http://lisanorris.blogspot.com/2014/08/tie-dye-sunday.html
Monday, August 18, 2014. We spent the day tie dying shirts at grandma and grandpa's house. Grandpa came up with this fun idea and stocked up with supplies at Hobby Lobby. I think maybe I had more fun than the kids! We started with tees for everyone. Trying a swirl pattern. After all shirts were dyed, we had enough dye remaining to do socks! After waiting hours, rinsing and washing each shirt separately (thanks to grandma! The finished projects are ready! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Strawberry Milk Chronicles: Triathlon Saturday
http://lisanorris.blogspot.com/2014/08/triathlon-saturday.html
Sunday, August 17, 2014. Setting up transition area and pre-race fueling. Lining up at the swim start. No one can look cool in a swim cap! 400 meter swim has started! Everyone is paced 5 seconds apart and we "snake" up and down the lanes. Race photographers captured Jeff on his race portion. Relieved to reach the finish! Surprised by a 1st place finish in women's aquabike! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). What's Keeping Us Busy? Life at the Blue Rock Ranch. Money Saving Mom℠.

http://takingitoutside.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
I would rather be outside than inside. I love the great outdoors, this blog is about the outdoors and outdoor activities, places, and gear.

According to Yellowstone.net there are over 1,100 miles of hiking trails in Yellowstone National Park. Considering that YNP encompasses 2.2. Petit Jean State Park, Arkansas. Time to go camping.

Strawberry Milk Chronicles: First Week in America
http://lisanorris.blogspot.com/2014/08/first-week-in-america.html
Friday, August 8, 2014. First Week in America. In the last week, we've learned a lot about the difference between the American and Dutch culture. We've also had some great laughs! Here are some interesting things we'e learned from our exchange student. 2 They ride bikes to school. Britt rides 15k (9 miles) every day to school, and then back, even in winter. Riding the school bus is a new experience for her. She also wondered how much it cost. Free! 3 If she says we have a big garden, it means big yard.

Leaves On My Tree: July 2015
http://mdleaves.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Leaves On My Tree. Friday, July 31, 2015. The Old Dirt Road. Not long ago I was out driving with my son. We drove past what used to be his grandparent's farm. As we pondered the changes there (all that is left is Mom's weeping willow tree and Dad's yard light) I mentioned that I remembered when the road going past was just an old dirt road. He remembered that too. The road is paved now. As it should be. It is a fairly major road with the quaint name of Broken Kettle Road. Dirt roads and even those that w...

Monday, August 11, 2014. Jeff and I signed up for the Sturgeon Moon 5K in Cicero. It was a twilight run planned around the full moon.
