College Homecoming - one of the few weekends a year we go back to visit campus and return to our old binge drinking habits to relive our college days. I thought the novelty of going back for Homecoming as an alum would last for at least a few years, but w ...
There are few things better than weeknight trips to the dog park (which is conveniently located ~25 steps from our front door). As a pup, Bear was born in an abandoned home with about 30-40 other dogs and no human contact for the first 5 months of h ...
