Mattress Fun at BJs

Who would think getting a mattress (Myra) at BJs would be this much fun!  Girls rode the cart the whole way through the store!

Fun in PapPap's Truck

Had a great visit with Nana and PapPap this weekend.  Cold front came in, and Myra loved using her vest and hood!

Gooey, Halloween Fun


This Year's Pumpkins

Yup, more creative things like last year.  Myra (and Mommy) did Mr. Meowkins, Lucy did the witch, and I did the skull and crossbones.

New Sheetz Coming to Louisburg

Sheetz Goodness: Coming Soon!
Finally, a Sheetz in the town I work in.  Actually will be within walking distance.  Cannot wait!

Boo Bash at Optimist Park

Girls Got Face Painting!  Matched their outfits!
Went to the Boo Bash last night.  Pretty fun.  They had a haunted trail (we did the less scary version), which was well done with stories of NC, including Edward Teach (aka Blackbeard).  Then inside was a carnival with games and FACE PAINTING.  Then the outside Haunted Bus, with a wicked scary bunny bus driver, and finishing with Trunk or Treat.  Durant's Halloween Walk tonight.

Scary bus driver!

More Signs on the Trail

So I went for a run today.  Pretty good, it was in the 40s, and I sweated pretty bad, so there was steam coming up from me.  I went on the Neuse River Trail, and as you can see, they put up new, large signs.  These signs actually have a map.  They show the entire trail, to the Johnston County, even though that part is not done yet.  Pretty cool!

Rooted and Cyanogen ROMed!

Yup, I finally rooted my EVO and then flashed Cyanogen to it.  And wow, it's like a new phone.  Fast, slick, and powerful.  Just like when I got it.  Loving it!

Neuse River Trail Report

Well, looks like the Neuse River Trail is about finished.  They are just putting finishing touches on, like the sign to the left.  This sign, found in the terminus between Bedford and Falls River, is similar to all the various signs along the trail.  I am not too much a fan of these newly designed signs, I prefer the green and wood of the past, but I am happy to see these signs!

Of Course Soda Would Be Better...

Name that Soda

Mmm...Candy Bar Quiz

Name That Candy Bar

October is Here!

Yup, the Neuse River Greenway is just about finished!  This bridge crosses the little stream between Bedford and Falls River.  You can see the floor is complete, but they just need to finish the sides.  So now you can run/bike/walk the entire way from the Falls Dam (where they put up a new sign I will try to get a picture of this weekend) to the WRAL Soccer Fields.  About 8 miles.  GREAT for marathon training!
