It was great to finally get our camper and officially nail down our first outing of the season with OUR CAMPER. Definitely not as fun camping without YOUR camper and YOUR stuff. With all systems go, we had a great weekend camping with Marsineks at the Geneva State Park Campground. […]

Kicking off the camping season with an intentional effort to hit some state parks, first up was Salt Fork State Park. A great campground, gigantic lots and best of all, we got some full hookup lots, making for much more pleasant logistics. (Lot F43,44,45 & F67, F68) There’s many hiking […]
Another awesome day. Jean, Nate and I with some other family and friends took place in the Warrior Dash in Canal Fulton. In all we only had 8 of us this year. Some moderate running for a “non-runner” like myself, along with many obstacles and LOTS of mud. We adopted […]
I had an awesome experience this weekend and thought I’d share it with someone, even if it’s just the world via my web site. Manta, one of our clients at Bark at the Moon has a weapon accessories product line (automatic rifle rail covers, button/switch covers, grip sleeves, etc.) and […]
As expected, the warrior dash turned out another great year with alot of fun and alot of mud. Thank God they changed up the course a little and didn’t hit us with the one mile run up front. That was painful last year… not to show my hand with my […]
Well you can check this off the list of things I figured my wife would never do. Run… and run alot. Jean was part of a relay team in the Akron Marathon this weekend. She ran with her cousin Joy Salberg, Angela Novotny, Mike Marsinek’s cousin Jeff and Angela’s cousin […]
Just a little entry to tribute another successful camping trip with good friends. Congratulations to the Marsineks for moving up from a tent to a pop-up. Even though Round-up Camping Resort wasn’t all we hoped, we still had a blast. Honestly, you could put us all in the middle of […]
I don’t make many political postings on my web site. Just thought I’d take a little corner of my web site to congratulate a friend on a well-run political race that ultimately led to his election as the Mayor of Streetsboro, Ohio. Congratulations Glenn, I know you’ll do us all […]
Life is good. This photo about sums up the weekend best for me. In our efforts to try out new campgrounds and find a place to frequent, we tried “Cutty’s Sunset Camping Resort” in Louisville. A pretty nice clean place overall, despite firemen and ambulances…. but hey…. it’s a holiday […]
I want to take a little space to tell Brandon what an awesome job he did this year on his baseball team. He was one of our most valuable assets playing hard in the catcher position primarily, but also giving us good help at pitcher and short stop. He finished […]
It was another great camping weekend with friends and family at Woodside Lake Park in Streetsboro. We reserved five spots all together and built a little compound of our own. Four days of swimming, corn-hole, eating and a little STORMING. All in all it was a great time with great […]
Another successful camping trip to the Salberg Camp in Leeper, Pennsylvania to kick off the camping season. Thanks again as always to Mark and Joy for letting us camp there, and bring a couple outsiders with us…. the Blasiole’s and Novotny’s. With 10 kids, we were a handful. Starting with […]
Just a simple corner of the Internet to pay a tribute to one of the bravest kids I’ve ever known. Ryan Trewin passed away this morning after a long-fought battle with Cancer. I want to posthumously thank him for being a great little role model to my 3 children. They […]
I’m going to straight lift the text from the Gateway News on this one. The photo caption is probably readable but for search-engine purposes, I’m going to retype it! Aly Giunto, left, and Emalie Novotny, both 8, recently made donations to make a life a little better for children experiencing […]
Our three kids, along with several others got their photo in the local Gateway News, while at a fund-raiser for the Streetsboro Fire Department. Here’s the full story. The Streetsboro Fire Department held its annual pancake breakfast and open house recently to raise money for the Aluminum Cans for Burned […]
Without going to Mark’s Camp, we had a great Labor Day Weekend this year. We opted to stay local to camp with friends and make Nate’s football game… which we won! We camped at Friendship Acres in Randolph with a few other families. The Novotny’s, Blasiole’s and us all set […]
Had a great time last night with a blast to the past with Bon Jovi at Blossom. Believe it or not this was only my 3rd concert at Blossom. I know most Northeast Ohioans do that by their senior year of high school but I didn’t take that route. Jean […]
Jean and I attended yet another Mardi Gras celebration at St Joan of Arc. A pretty ‘tame’ event until the elderly go home and the crazies come out. Our good friends Michel was crowned as king and Dana was crowned as queen, it was a pretty fun night with all […]
Thanks again to Rick and Tasha for taking me and the boys out boating. Too bad Jean and Aly couldn’t make it. They had a bridal shower to attend. The Day family brought their boat and family along as well. Ali Benci joined us too. We finally had summer show […]
