Getting To Know You

We put our attention into our kids... all 8 of them lol. Maybe we'll get some fish in the future, but right now, it's not on the list of things to get, lol

First, I like the fall season most. I love noticing the days get shorter and the light change. I like the way nature sort of begins to doze off into the sleep of winter. I also like the brisk morning air and being able to snuggle under blankets when it gets cold. I don't like all of the holiday hooplah that starts this time of year, but the family celebrations are fun.

I don't have any pets at home currently, but I talked my mom into rescuing a German Shepherd Husky mix named Sheila last year so she is pretty much my dog who lives at my mom's because the yard is big and walled in. That doesn't stop her from escaping, though. She has gone through chain link fences, over six foot walls, and can open some doors. She loves to run and doesn't like to be contained, but she isn't trying to run away. When she gets out, all I have to do is drive my car anywhere near her and open the door and she jumps right in. Goofy mutt! She also has one brown eye and one bright blue almost white eye. It's pretty cool.

I don't have any kids of my own, but I have three nieces whom my wife and I spoil with gifts and sweets and then send them back to their parents LOL. We don't plan on any kids of our own, but it's fun to be immature with my brother's kids.

Oh, and I live about an hour East of Los Angeles in a city with a name made famous in Bugs Bunny cartoons. Rancho Cucamonga. It was originally all wine vineyards around Route 66 on the way to the beach, but is now a pretty suburban city against the local mountains.
