When we’ve been walking the dogs, we’ve been keeping an eye out for Daddy Long Leg spiders after seeing 29 on our walk through Parker Woods a few days ago…

Today, we only saw 18 Daddy Long Leg spiders. Bummer. 😀🌳🕷️❤️

Genifer got me hooked on Birchbox. She first got it for me for my birthday. Now every month a really cool little box of handpicked men’s grooming samples show up on our doorstep. I love it because it gives me the chance to try a whole bunch of different products that I wouldn’t normally even hear about, let alone get to try…


In this month’s little box of goodies was Anthony Glycolic Exfoliating & Resurfacing Wipes, Davines Naturaltech™ Energizing Shampoo, Brickell Men’s Products Invigorating Mint Body Wash, Billy Jealousy Salad Days Body Scrub and Air Repair Complexion-Boosting Moisturizer. My favorite products in this box were either the energizing shampoo or the body scrub. Both were great. I love Birchbox. 😀🎁❤️

Snug as a bug in a rug. Always remembering the good times with the bud dog. 😀🐾❤

As I was packing up to leaving work, I heard a whole bunch of sirens racing around the city. I didn’t give it a lot of thought because it happens not a lot but often. As I was leaving the building, I noticed police had Main Street closed at Eighth Street. Odd. As I walked up Main Street to the bus stop, I saw why…


Someone flipped their car in the middle of the intersection at Main and Ninth Streets. And it was the only vehicle involved in the accident…


It was really weird and no one could figure out how this happened. Ninth Street is very flat. The roads were very dry. And only one car was involved. How this happened will forever remain a mystery to me. I just hope everyone involved was okay. 😀🚗🗯️❤️

Oscar was watching us from the back seat of our car when we stopped at Sidewinder to get coffee this morning…

He was riding with us because he had a vet appointment later in the morning. He’s been having allegery issues with his ears. Poor guy. 😀☕️🐾❤️

This evening we dropped off our cable boxes and remotes to Spectrum to finally be done with cable once and for all. After that, we planned on stopping by the relatively new Mad Tree taproom in Oakley for a happy hour event. Their space is really massive and oddly the amount of parking is not. We drove around the parking lot looking for a spot twice before calling it quits and heading back to Northside. We stopped at Higher Gravity on the way home. They were hosting a Star Wars Hans Solo event featuring some beers from Woodburn Brewery…




Higher Gravity had some beers that had really great package design…



And on the way home, we stopped at Chameleon to grab a couple of delicious pizza slices to take home with us…

It was another fun night in Northside. 😀🍺❤️

We went on our normal dog walk this evening through Parker Woods…

The other day we started noticing that there were a bunch of Daddy Long Geg spiders on the path. We started counting about halfway through our walk and counted 13 spiders. Tonight, we started counting from the beginning and we saw 29 Daddy Long Legs…

We walked a little over a mile tonight…

It equates to seeing a spider every 200 or so feet. That’s a lot of spiders. 😀🌄🕷️❤️

By the time we were done eating dinner, the rain had stopped, the storm had blown over, sun was back out and the clouds were pretty spectacular…



We walked the dogs through Parker Woods…




And it turned out to be a beautiful evening. 😀🌄❤️
