I am Dayton Strong
The morning after Memorial Day, I’m outside chasing my dog at 4 o’clock in the morning. The sky is full of stars and the air is perfectly still.

After I put the syrup in the cute bottle I got from Meijers, I started dancing around the kitchen singing “Pumpkin Spice” to the tune of “Jingle Bells.” Sorry there isn’t a video of me dancingContinue reading “5 Reasons to Love Fall”
2018’s word of the year
In 2017, my word of the day was bucket list. It was definitely a bucket list type year.
2017 – The Year of the “Bucket List”
Last January, I decided my 2017 was going to be known by the phrase bucket list. So was this year the year of the “bucket list?” In 2017, I had so many different experiences some that could be said were part of my bucket list even though I do not have an official bucket list.Continue reading “2017 – The Year of the “Bucket List””
