Cape Cod Photos 2018

More photos of this year's vacation. We wanted to go to Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket but didn't realize how far in advance you have to reserve your spot if you want to take your car on the ferry to either island. Now we know better and we will be visiting both next year!

Radar Station Entry



We saw this place in 2015, drove right in. Felt like we had stumbled upon something straight out of WWII. Glad we found it again this year!

Duck Harbor

The sun was in ours eyes, we couldn't see at all!

Tanner decided he wanted to bring a small boulder back to Ohio with him. He named it Rocky and is carrying it to the van in this picture. 


Tiffany and Tanner at Heath and Kettle

Roure 28 Diner had toys cars all over the place, including this display. I felt right at home!

Another awesome sunrise

He wants to be your friend!



We decided to build one of these in the yard for Ben to live in!








Wings Neck Light. This is as close as I could get as it was down a private road that said no trespassing and no photos!!!

I really tried to capture how gorgeous the moon and it's reflection on the water were. This picture doesn't nearly do it justice.

We had a wonderful week in New England in 2018, and cannot wait to get back here next year! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

It is good to be me!

My son, the Bully

Last Friday, before I got home from work, there was a knock on my front door. My wife, Tiffany, answered the door and was confronted by an upset father. This man, clearly frustrated and at his wits end, informed her that our son Ben had taken part in the verbal bullying of his son Jordan. And while Ben was not the primary offender, nor had he been involved since the beginning, he was still a part of a group of kids who had been picking on Jordan for 2 years. When Tiffany called me I was floored. For those who do not know Ben, he is a great kid, the last person I had ever imagined would be involved with something like this. Sweet and always caring, Ben often will give up something he wants if someone else wants it more. He asks to help around the house and is a very even keeled kid. Still he is a little awkward, not feeling like he fits in. He is an artist while his older brother is the athlete, so Ben has always felt like his identity needed to be separate from John Michael's.

A Roller Coaster of a Christmas Miracle

Well, I woke up Sunday Morning............... Hey that sounds like a great first line of a song But Tiffany and I got up extra early because she wanted to hit the grocery store before it was packed. So we did, then went to breakfast at Frisch's, all before 8 am. When we got home we woke Tanner up, and we all got ready for church. Right around 9, my phone rang. Ugh, work. Need to dispatch a team to Buckeye Lake. Took a few minutes and got them dispatched, hung up, and it rang again. Another job, in West Virginia. I wound up being on the phone until 9:30, and we needed to get out the door as Little Red was scheduled to work the Guest Services desk at Centerpoint for both Christmas Eve services. We headed to the car. And my phone rang again. Yet another, much bigger emergency job. I had to go. No church for me. I put Tiffany and Tanner in her car and sent them off, then I headed towards the flooded day care center. I decided to take Broad street to get there. As I was in front

The Finger of God

Have you ever seen the movie Twister? Released in 1996 and starring Helen Hunt and Bill Paxton, the movie followed a group of storm chasers as they got caught up in a harrowing day of following and escaping tornadoes. It was considered cutting edge for the way it depicted the funnel clouds and the scientists who do this everyday. Little did I know how, 24 years later, my work would bring me to a place in Middle Tennessee where real life imitated art, and my latest clients would be grateful to have escaped with their lives. Their story in just a moment. First, I would be remiss if I did not mention the passing of an old friend recently. Kent "WiFi Guy " Pingel worked with me at Belfor, a job he affectionately called "The Dirty Gig". We crossed paths many times at various disaster zones all over the country, and his blog  Ping WiFi  chronicled his journeys, always looking for a good story and a WiFi connection. He was a brilliant writer and better friend, who
