ReplyDeleteHi, looks like a fun year ya' all!
ReplyDeleteI would like to post a "holy crap" to two items on this blog:
ReplyDelete1) An igloo. A real-looking igloo, not just a pile of snow with a hole in it.
2) Collin in a Speedo. I mean, if I could pull it off, I might go for it too, but still. Holy crap.
Okay, the igloo is fantastic. Was that part of a scouting project?
