Our office dogs, Barley & Guinness, along with their caregiver Jeanne, would like to remind you that the dog days of summer are here (again). The outside temperatures are way too hot to leave your animals outdoors without access to cool water and shade. These hot days are not only hard on us humans, they […]
A favorite pastime of mine, when I have the time, is riding my Quarter Horse “Sky”. There are a lot of things many people don’t realize that are vital to safety with horses. A lot of the things I now know, I recently learned by owning a horse after many, many years of not having […]
I grew up in a town called Twinsburg, Ohio. Twinsburg is about 30 miles east of Cleveland and home to the largest gathering of twins in the world to date. Each year, on the first weekend of August, sets of multiples and their families from all over the world make Twinsburg their home for the […]

Robert Mohney, my grandpa, is one of the most amazing men I have ever met. He’s one of those people who has truly done it all. In his life he has been a principal, a veteran, visited every president’s home, raised a child (my dad, Mark), scored a hole-in-one at a Florida golf course and […]
