If you have ever had the opportunity to do a house project that involved digging deep in the ground than you have likely (or should have) called blue stakes. You know them, the guys that come out and mark where underground utilities are so you don’t make a major snafu and cut into your power [...]

This last week we, my wife and I, have been putting in a fair amount of time in the yard. She more than I, but I have put in whatever time I can. Because my wife is more of the enthusiast when it comes to the lawn and garden, I am simply providing grunt work [...]

Having moved across the country just 2 years ago, we have encountered a few problems here and there with different state policies. Nothing major, until yesterday. We have a Jeep Wrangler that broke down and we were not driving it at all. It was sitting in our driveway and we had cancelled the insurance. My [...]
