Luna, Our Newest Family Member

On January 11, 2018, I met Rose and Alicia at the Kitsap Humane Society to take a look at a dog named Angelica that Rose spotted on their webpage. I was there on time, and they were late, almost so late that we would miss adopting her until the next day. Luckily, the staff was nice enough […]

Modem Damaged

Power Off

This is the first power outage of this Fall. Really isn’t that windy outside but it has rained about two inches over the past two days. The generator is on and we are functioning as normal\. We are under a high wind warning until 2100 tonight.

Two New Doors Installed

Yesterday we had two new entry doors and a storm door installed. The installer did a really good job\. The doors are very nice and much more snug.
