Let Spring Begin

I feel as though spring officially started yesterday. We got the mountain bikes out and took ourselves and Loki to Standley Lake for the first ride of the year.

Springy Thing

You may or may not have noticed that I added another skin to the large library of aesthetic goodness that's being assembled here. On one version of IE I tested it on, the bottom part of the table, it isn't translucent, but it should look good anyhow. Change your jesser theme around and start planning [...]

Her rabbits, Hoover (black) and Bun-Bun (white) will be staying in our posh guest room, eating loads of hay, fresh veggies, and generally avoiding Loki. Loki has not shown a real interest in the [...]
