We wanted a way to remember those that attended our 20 year class reunion so we decided to set up a video camera where classmates could shoot a 2-3 minute clip that we then edited to fit onto a DVD. We took all the clips and with the help of our middle of the [...]

After our 20 year class reunion I had several emails asking about the possibility of doing a cruise for the 25 year mark.

If you are planning to attend your high school reunion one of make sure to plan ahead and book your hotel room early. We found out that with our 20 year reunion those that waited until the last minute had to book hotels that were 20-30 minutes away from the main event sites. We were [...]

We have enjoyed having our basement and had never really thought about having or needing one until we lived out East. They are great areas for the kids or to be able to set up a game room. The one major thing that you have to be careful with is the dampness and possible mold [...]

The best shower head ever

I was watching one of the old Seinfield episodes where Kramer is obsessed with shower faucets to get a more thorough cleaning.

Planning a reunion can be exciting, fun, and rewarding, but it also has its downfalls. As with any event, a budget must be set before any plans can take place, and this can be particularly difficult if you are counting on the financial assistance of others. Even worse, you might not just be collecting from [...]

It has been a long hard Winter here in the Northwest and in Spokane we had a record snow fall which has just recently melted away. The weather is starting to get warmer and people are actually out in their yards planting their hydrangea bushes, pulling weeds, and mowing their yards. This is one of [...]

Admittedly, it may not be an ideal situation. Running into an ex-partner at your reunion can be awkward, intimidating and, yes, even stressful.
