8-14-10

Last night SUCKED out at Brice Rd!!
It was nothing compared
to last year or even the years before that!
Yeah there was a big crowd and mopars
BUT maybe like one major burnout.
The cops had put the traffic lights
to flashing instead of allowing cars
to stop at red lights and doing
burn outs.

Here's some cars that were there.
Not all were Mopars.





This Charger was similar to ours
but a different year.




This Mastiff was HUGE. Pictures don't
do it justice. His name was Bull
and his head was about 3x's the
size of Jonathan's!




Not sure what this was. It was a
type of motorcycle with 2 seats
side by side.

5:45PM

Not sure what you want to call
this for supper.
I boiled up some cheddar smoked
sausage then slice down middle
and place on plate.

I then sauted up a box of Green
Giant Garden Vegetable Medley
(snap peas, roasted potatoes,
red peppers & garden herbs).
I also chopped up an onion,
threw in some sliced green
bell peppers and some banana
peppers. I sauted with some
Teriyaki sauce til tender.

Then I topped the smoked sausage
with a slice of Swiss cheese
and the veggies from above.
Added some salt & pepper and
a splash of Franks Red Hot sauce.

Earlier today we stopped by UV.
They are not into flow blown
move outs til next week.
Did find a few stragglers that
were starting to weed stuff out.

Here are my finds for today.
I still have 2 more bags to
go through and a few items
still in the truck that is
not included in these photos.
There was also some clothes
which included a couple t-shirts,
polos and shorts for the boys.

Not even sure how this subject got
brought up yesterday but we were talking
about Wallahalla. It's a road that sits
between Indianola and High Street between
Weber and EN Broadway. It's a road
that sits down in a ravine with a
small creek running beside it.
There are ghost stories that go along
with this road and we told the kids
we would take them tonight, after dark,
down this road. Hey this was their
idea, not ours! If you would like
to read about Wallahalla here are
a few web sites you can go to
or search Wallahalla Columbus Ohio
on Google.

Update:
Jonathan is staying the night
at his friend's house so it will
be just me, Tony and Christopher.
Will have to take along the
camera to take videos, lol.

Went through the last 2 bags of
stuff from DDn.

Here is what I found and kept.
Now mind you I have three totes
I am taking to Tony's work and
dumping with things I didn't want.

I did find some shorts, shirts and
some pants that might fit the boys.
The rest was girl clothes that
was waaay too small for me.

It makes you wonder what these
people kept for themselves because
it looked like they threw out
all their clothes and jewelry
along with bathroom items.
These aren't bobo clothes either.
They are name brand clothes like
Hollister and such. Just doesn't
make sense but I ain't trying to
figure it out. I love love LOVE
this time of year!

They'll even throw out all their
cleaning supplies and cupboards
of food!

Just returned home. Took a trip over
to Tony's work to pick up an air tank.
Then we cruised over to University
City Shopping center to visit McDonalds
for a couple hot fudge sundaes for the
boys and I used up my last free
caramel frape coupon before it
expired tomorrow.
When leaving we cruised through UV
once again.
Found a stereo receiver which is something
we've been needing. I have a box full
of surround equiptment that I was going
to give Damien for Christmas but it
has no receiver to make it all work.
Free is good because used ones go
for $50 to $100 believe me I looked
on Craigslist for them once before.

Jonathan also found a cd case full
of cd's from rap to rock n roll.

After that we took them down
Walhalla, which I have been spelling
wrong so this is the correct spelling.

We ended up with a car behind us
about half way through the road
so that sucked because we couldn't
slow down or stop to scare the kids, LOL!

On our joyous ride home with the windows
down and the temperature of 75 degrees
out I keep hearing this tap, tap, tapping
sound. I suspected a screw or nail in the
tire. Tony pulled over, and of course
it's dark out, but I found the screw
in the rear tire. It didn't seem
to be leaking air at them moment
but decided we should return home
in case it did. Good thing we picked
up that air tank at Tony's work.
