What sold me on Red Wing is they have the Goodyear welt construction so can be resoled by a cobbler. I've owned some of those other brands you mentioned and they make a good shoe! The low-acidity of this

Yes, both of them had the lunch counter. I remember they sold fried bologna sandwiches. Their burgers and fries were decent. There were always old-timers sitting at the counter at the one by Lazarus in

Yes, Smart Summon will be really useful. It's really nice to be able to pull the car out of the tight garage space without having to worry about banging the doors while getting in. I have a few pairs of

We're so lucky that each of these two cities are within thirty minutes of us. It might be a little dangerous that Redwing is this close to us now. : ) I see my boot collection growing. If you drove down

It's pretty safe to say it's perfected now. All we have to do is wait for the US government to approve autonomous driving, which will be a high hurdle.

Hello @lizelle! I'm just checking in to see if all is well. It's unlike you to not post for this long. I hope everything is okay!

That brings back memories! We had a Woolworth's in downtown Columbus on High Street and there was also one outside of the office building I worked in in St. Paul. The lake breezes would be perfect for

He was a very unique and special person. : )

Possibly! We've only been in the house for only about a year and a half but found out a neighboring city has approved the construction of ten data centers and all of them will be sharing our same aquifer

Thank you! The Dale character in the story was my Dad. As an adult looking back I am amazed he ended up being such a good father without having had a father figure himself.

Thank you!

Thanks! So glad you enjoyed it. Mikey was me and Dale was my Dad. This is precisely how I remember it happening.

I can only imagine! K-mart was probably past its shelf-life around the late-90's. They were the go-to store for us in the 1970's and 80's. Nice! We used to love flying kites. I don't see many kids doing

That looks wonderful! I like how clean and compact the design of the stove is. After living with my first wood (pellet) stove for a winter I can't imagine having another house without one. Even if we end

The weird thing about it is inside it feels like just another Tesla. The driving experience doesn't match the looks at all. It'd be fun to take it off road to see what it could do. Thanks Nancy! I hope

So true Nancy! Life does become more beautiful as we come to understand and appreciate it more. I'd never heard that Hugo quote but it feels accurate. The fifties do seem like the beginning of our elder

I hope they get that power/water situation fixed for you all soon! Reading this made me want a beer and it's only 44(F) degrees here at the moment! I hope you're enjoying your weekend Nancy.

I agree. The unexpected can really be a blessing sometimes.

Most of my grey is in my beard. I noticed a lot more sprouting these past few years.

I was lucky—right place, right time. I can’t believe a decade has already flown by!
