hub caps

These days, a big part of my life is car parts.
They are an even bigger part of Rob's life (as he has to learn all about all of them).
Neither of us really have a passion for car parts, old cars, or anything of that sort.  
But that is where life has taken us. 

Some customer wanted to see pictures of these things... they might be hubcaps...I'm not sure.  But he wanted to see what they looked like before he purchased them.  So Rob snapped these pictures on his i-phone, and we emailed them over.  
Anyways, I just thought that the pictures were really neat (because of the reflection, not because of the product, haha).  It's like a little mirror into our life at work.

::The reflection shows our place of work- Andy's house (the previous owner of the business).  He lives in a huge, old, beautiful, blue house.  And if you look close, you can see Rob :) ::

::This shows one of the work areas/areas where lots and lots of old car parts are stored.  It's a very unique work environment, to say the least.  If you look close, you can also see Rob, and 2 employees- Steve and Dennis::

battle day at the bridge

In honor of Patriot's Day (which is Monday), I attended a Revolutionary War reenactment at The Old North Bridge on Saturday morning.  It  was certainly a thing to do/see if you live in this area.  

Mr. Rob wanted to come along, but couldn't join me because he had to work all day.  Poor guy.  Even though I would have much rather had him there, luckily for me, I don't mind having adventures on my own. 

So, on Saturday I woke up earlier than anyone should wake up on the weekend, drove the short drive to Concord, and was literally one of the first people to arrive at the "battle scene".  I thought it would be so crowded by the time I got there, but nope.  So I set up my blanket at the best seat in the house, read my magazine while I waited, and then thoroughly enjoyed watching the Colonial troops kick the Brits trash.  ;)


A colonial fella who told us about interesting history things.


Happy Patriot's Day- tomorrow.

i was on hiatus

not really.  just been working. a lot.  but here's a couple of recent pictures- the only new ones on my camera.
 
Woke up to this on April Fools Day-just when we thought Spring was here, Mother Nature pulled a fast one on us.  Our poor flowers! Thank goodness it was all gone by the next day.
Rob would probably not be pleased if he knew I posted this picture in his bathrobe. haha.  I kind of pressured him to buy it because I think bathrobes are amazing.  But anyways, on Conference Sunday, Rob made us yummy homemade waffles, I poured us yummy glasses of orange juice, and we watched Conference in our bathrobes.
