Leaving an Impression
My cute little niece helped me stamp a lifetime impression in my new garage floor. This renovation marks a new beginning, not only for this 65 year old home, but also a new chapter in life.

Poor Willow Bee
For those of you who do not know Mr. Willow Bee dog, he is my 120 pound Old English Sheepdog that I rescued from the animal shelter.
