Day 4 Part 2

Today, we drove to Kearney, Nebraska. And on the way, we passed the Oracle’s home town. The great Warren Buffet and Omaha, Nebraska. The man, the myth and in my book the greatest investors of all time. When I first started investing, I bought Berkshire Class B shares. Why? Because a group of us from …

Day 4: Adel, Iowa

After five hours on I80, we made it to Adel. Along the way, we crossed the mighty Mississippi. The Mississippi is just a wide, hulk of a river. It’s easy to understand why it was such an important part of early life in the US. The night was spent enjoying time at the RV park. …

Day 2

Today we head to Adel, Iowa. I’m a little bias with this stop due to Mike’s grandmother who is named Adele. So, this place has a lot to measure up to in name. We did much better this morning with getting ready. I think we’re finding that organization is key. National Lampoon has nothing on …

Day 2

Today, we began our journey. In started off smooth enough. Lunch break near Van Wert. The young guys and I headed to Subway. While the older group, went to Arby’s. We played the license plate game and ended up with 30 total by the end of our first day. Bonus points for Alabama and 2 …

Day 1

In a pouring rain, we picked up the RV. My dad and Zachary did the inaugural drive back to Bucyrus. Meanwhile, Mike’s parents headed to a campsite in Shelby while Cameron drove from Columbus with his family. We spent two hours loading the RV and miraculously it all fit. To celebrate this small achievement we …

RV Special

So today, we start our special RV trip. It’s been a lot of work to get to this point. And what started as a dream on a baseball diamond has become reality. Two different RVs full of family headed west. We couldn’t be more excited. I’m not sure what I’m more excited for the scenery …

Week in Rewind July 1

Today, our Zachary turns eleven. It’s hard to imagine where the time has gone. Gone in an instant. He now stands almost level with me. We have watched him transform over time. When I first started writing about Zachary in my blog, I thought I’ll do it until the toddler years are over. But as …

Week in Rewind June 25

We’ve had a busy few weeks so I missed a few post. I really do feel that some days are just a blur. Even with that, we try to make the most of them. We spent a few days down in OC. The weather was perfect. It was kind of cool because it was just …

Week in Review June 4

I’m simply going to call this the week of JuJu. And boy, what a week it has been. The good old boy is certainly feeling his oats and is becoming a little bit of a goof ball. Let’s see where to begin. See that trash can up there. Well to JuJu, it’s like fine dining …

Week in Rewind: May 28

This last weekend, we headed down to the Shore for a quick break. Zachary and I headed down on Friday night by ourselves after his ball game. We had a fun time, first navigating new roads and then making a pit stop at McDonald’s. After carrying up a mountain full of stuff, we settled in …
