~UVA Cavaliers~

Tom & me

Yes, we're Hoos fans!

My first live football game since high school (1969), and now I'm hooked. Not on the game, (baseball is my thing), but on the camaraderie and team spirit! The tailgate parties are the best! Sorry, the Cavaliers lost to Miami Saturday, but it sure was fun to be there. Go, Hoos!

Smoke choking you out?

When you clean your wood stove, don't forget the cap. A clog can cause your whole house to fill up with smoke. So, if your wood stove is smoking you out every time you open the door, look at your cap. I did, with binoculars, and knew something was wrong. This is how it looked once it was removed. Have a safe fire-free winter!
