Posts would need to be in the 500-1000 word range. If supplying pictures, you must have own them or have written permission to use them (I don’t want to get into copyright trouble). If you would be interested, use the contact form to let me know.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

I want to wish those of you celebrating Christmas a happy holiday and New Year. My oldest daughter’s birthday is Christmas Eve, so we have a lot of party’s this time of the year.

Unfortunately, this time of the year means snow and ice. Thus not giving me much time to go diving. So I get to catch up on neglected housework and playing more with my kids. Maybe I’ll finally finish the drywall work in my garage.

Thanks to everyone for your support and encouragement this year. It’s been a fun and rewarding year and I do appreciate all that you contribute.

I hope that your day is a fun and happy one and that you are surrounded by people who love you.

See you in the coming days!
