The Volt Gets The Mums

The Chevy Volt's hatchback could have held lots more than the nine giant mum plants that I hauled home from Dorothy's Flowers in Harbor Beach. On a sunny fall day, with temperatures in the low seventies, the mum run proved to be a pleasureable bit of gardening to do. 

The Volt has over 41,000 miles on it and is still, hands down, my all time best car ever.

The SMB Bandos

Oh how I love this photo of all the Spartan Marching Band "bandos" from our family. Taken in the fall of 2002 when Peter was marching mellophones, here are Pete and Wendy and Will and Liesl.

The first game is tonight and the SMB will be there in full force, doing a Michigan themed rock show for the half time. Think Eminem (Warren) and Bob Segar (Dearborn) and Kid Rock (Romeo) and Stevie Wonder (Saginaw. Very cool.

March to the stadium is at 7:15 pm from Adams Field and, yes, I am on my way to the game, 'cause, yes, we are Spartan fans, and especially SMB fans, in this household.
