This is our new dog. His name is Noah… for now. Some people don’t think it’s the right name yet. The right name should come to us sometime in the next six months. Why a new dog? Why is the sky blue? A friend of ours has a giant Irish wolf hound (like the size [...]
Off for a date with the wife – a lovely dinner at this place called Nicholas in Red Bank. This will be our first time out in months. And a much more laid back Christmas – even though there will be many people stopping by tomorrow. Cozy and relaxed. I wish that to everyone this [...]
