We got way more snow than the 4-6" they were forecasting, but at least I got to take a rare Christmas lights snow pic! #holidays #christmas #christmaslight #freehold #newjesery #snow

A fire has broken out at a metal scrapyard 4 blocks from our house. So many emergency personnel responded. They had it put out for a while, but it has since reignited. The smoke smells like a combination of burning rubber and plastic. We have no idea what we're breathing in here. #freehold #NJ

Finished the outside of the house yesterday, and today was all about the inside of the house. The tree is up and decorated, as well as the living room. #Christmas #ChristmasLights #ChristmasDecorating

After I got all the Christmas lights set up on the house, I had to get the Chief set up as well. Here is my obligatory spare tire wreath video. #JeepLife #DuckDuckJeep #Christmas #ChristmasLights

Took two days because I had to deal with leaves and other end-of-the-year yard maintenance, but I finally got the Christmas lights up. It's supposed to rain all day tomorrow. I should be able to get the Christmas tree and the rest of the indoor decorations taken care of. #Christmas #ChristmasLights

Started working on the holiday decorations today. I won't have the lights on until tomorrow, but I thought it might be fun to share this new addition! #FDT

I shit you not, another student driver in the parking lot across the street just had another accident. Jumping over the same curb.... we're going to have to go to some town council meetings or something.

Obligatory childhood Halloween pic of me and my siblings. I'm guessing this was 1983. I'm in the middle, my younger brother Mike is on the right, and no... that horrifying thing on the left is not a doll. That's my seemingly catatonic sister, Jen, as Strawberry Shortcake. #GenX #halloween

The last gasp of this storm flooded the tracks at the Newark airport station, 60-minute delays. So I’m riding the ferry for the first time to South Amboy, and grabbing a Lyft to get the Jeep parked at the Aberdeen station. This is a lot, but the ferry is delightful. #commuter #njtransit #nywaterway

All of my dental work is complete and i couldn't be happier. I'm still processing this. It doesn't feel real. I'm trying to learn how to smile with my lips open. That's not something I've ever done. I left Yuma today and now I'm in my old neighborhood in Mesa. #Arizona #Mesa #DentalTourism

Made it to Arizona, had some irritating issues with the rental car, but I'll manage. Today I spent the afternoon tubing on the Colorado River. Tonight dinner and maybe a dive bar, tomorrow Los Algodones and dental work. #Yuma #Arizona #LosAlgodones #dentaltourism

So here it is: two angles of a kid crashing into my house. I cut it before they exited the vehicle to protect their privacy. Guess I should say thanks for the free foundation overhaul I will be getting? Much obliged. #wtf #freehold #freeholdboro #youhitmyhouse

A Spicebush Swallowtail in one of our backyard butterfly bushes. I've never seen one of these here before. We have also had a lot of monarchs this year, but they are so skittish and fast! #butterflies #gardening #punkrockgardening 🌱🌿🪴🌳🦋

IT'S FU#@ING AUGUST!!!!

Finally got a week with no rain in the forecast so time for the annual detailing of my JK Chief she the wife's Challenger. I'm exhausted, filthy, and slightly drunk. Sun, bourbon, yacht rock... It's a good day. #jeep #jeeplife #mopar #challenger #duckduckjeep

Out watering the porch plants, we had a visitor on the butterfly bush, a Canadian Tiger Swallowtail (eh?) The porch plants are doing great this season! The railing boxes have taken off. The hanging baskets were sus, but they've filled in nicely! #butterflies #gardening #punkrockgardening 🌱🌿🪴🌳🦋

This is my in-laws' dog, Cubby, and he has a crush on me. Understandable. #dogsofbluesky #brusselsgriffon

Way to hot today for the amount of gardening and landscaping i did, but I'm glad I got it all done. Obligatory pic of the hydrangeas before they wilt. "May your flowers bloom." #punkrockgardening #gardening #hydrangeas #freehold #pride 🌺🌷💮🌸🌼🥀🌹💐🪻🌱🌿🪴

But once the sun goes down, we've gotten other critters as well! There's the exceptionally rowdy trash panda, the dark gray cat, and the white tag I've named AirTag for self-explanatory reasons. #racoon #cats 🐈🐈‍⬛🦝

No crows yet but the blue jays love the kibble, and also, apparently this exceptionally sassy robin #birds

Did some work on the front flower beds today. I weeded and set up sprinkler hoses and a timer to prevent the coming heatwave from taking out the hydrangeas. Now I'm admiring my work from the porch with some bourbon and my boys, Jules and Bruce! #bostonterrier #brusselsgriffon #dogsofbluesky

Yesterday I reworked out plant wall. I had been trying to keep Purple Hearts in the center section, but they just weren't doing well. The pothos is thriving though she were going to see how satin silver pothos does. Had to adjust the plant lights to make sure they keep the silver tones. 🌿🌱🪴
