Volunteering at Hoopfest

We volunteered at Hoopfest this year, which is the world’s largest 3 on 3 basketball tournament. We are usually in a tent in a large parking lot to sell merchandise but this year we were moved into a shop across from the mall. It was much slower than previous years, so much so we were… Read More Volunteering at Hoopfest

RiCa Designs: a new side gig

After matching and creating the Blue Devil’s fleet stripe, I decided to try and sell some items online. I watched a ton of print-on-demand videos to learn how it all works. The first thing was to create an email to log into all the accounts, etc. The name came first then of course I had… Read More RiCa Designs: a new side gig

Our Five Star rated shows so far this year

At the halfway point in the year, we have rated four shows with a five-star rating. We enjoyed them all but by far our favorite has been Ted Lasso which we have watched seasons one and two multiple times.

A look around

While enjoying the backyard tonight, Mom wanted a video of the garden to show her brothers. This is just the back half of the yard, but it provides them with a good view of what they will see next month.

Adding trees

This spring it has been all about Rosy’s Garden. We’ve moved some plants around, thinned out some areas, and removed and replace a few trees. We added a Japanese Maple to the front patio area along with a second one on the side of the house. We then removed a silver-tipped maple (because it had… Read More Adding trees

RiCa Designs: It all started with an idea

Back in 1987, I was living in Concord, and I started to volunteer with the Concord Blue Devils. For the summer, I was asked to go on tour with the B Corps, and when that wrapped up, I was asked to join the Devil’s Food team. That summer, I toured with the Corps across the… Read More RiCa Designs: It all started with an idea

Day 9: Heading home

 The bikes packed in easily today, not sure what we did differently but we will take it. We left our place at 11:00 and stopped to say goodbye to Sailesh and Michael. We were at the US Border in Blaine and had to wait maybe 15 minutes before we crossed over. Our original plan… Read More Day 9: Heading home

Day 8: Change of plans

We had planned to travel up to Whistler mountain today and check out some waterfalls along the way. We were a quarter of the way there when the navigator said crash ahead, and rerouted us to a seven hour drive. We stayed on the original freeway until we came to a complete stop, and after… Read More Day 8: Change of plans

Day 7: Exploring the local parks

We continued our exploration of Vancouver with Sailesh today. Our first stop was Burnaby Mountain which Sailesh said we had gone to when I visited but nothing look familiar to me. The trees still had many blossoms and we were definitely loving the look of them. We had wanted to try and get photos of… Read More Day 7: Exploring the local parks

Day 6: Exploring the Wharf

After breakfast, we met up with Sailesh and Micheal and they drove us down to the southern part of Vancouver and to an ocean park. It got a little cold so we grabbed our jackets and walked the area. While walking down the street, Sailesh said this is where they filmed the tv show Once… Read More Day 6: Exploring the Wharf
