Over the weekend, we FINALLY cooled down on Sunday to be able to spend time outdoors! Yes, it was humid thanks to the spotty showers and storms, but not enough to stay inside ALL day! I ended up going to the Akron Zoo Sunday afternoon. I just made sure to take an umbrella in with me and I was fine. Then earlier this afternoon it was still cool enough to be able to do something…
Post Malone has what very well may turn out to be the song of the Summer with Morgan Wallen. Now that he has that success, he will be releasing an entire Country album later this Summer. Look for Post Malone's album "F 1-Trillion" to hit the market on August 16th. He says the title is a play on the model of pickup trucks. It'll be interesting to see what kind of range into Country someone…
I write this blog every year at this time. It is the OFFICIAL start of Summer...so that means one thing - the days are going to get shorter for the next six months :(. I personally love a late night sunset. They can be so pretty, and it improves your mood having the sun out later in the day. If there's one thing I cannot stand, it's looking outside in January at 4:30 in the…

I was able to make it out on Saturday evening. I was really looking forward to seeing Thomas Rhett. As you can see, I was able to meet Riley Green before his set...which was awesome! I had such a great time hanging out with coworkers, seeing all of the dedicated country music fans, and listening to some really great music! Thomas Rhett did not disappoint! Kinda bummed I wasn't able to be there for Lainey…
Thankfully Country Fest is this weekend and not next! Next week, they are expecting our afternoon highs anywhere 90-100 degrees! As we all know, getting into your car in the hot weather is no fun. Everything becomes scorching hot and it's hard to touch most anything. Let's not even mention if you accidentally touch that metal seat belt buckle!!!! There are several tricks you can try to help keep your car cooler and to help…

My little guy Buttercup is back home after an eventful couple of weeks. This all started a couple months ago when I noticed changes in his behavior. I took him to the doctor and he was diagnosed as being Diabetic. Fast forward to last week, and I was finally able to start him on a medicine that he did not react well to. So a couple of trips to the doctor later, on Friday night…
I don't know about you, but I think Mother Nature is off her rocker today! We are struggling to hit 60 degrees outside today.

I have no idea why she (Mother Nature) is playing this game with us. Today it's about 60. By Thursday…

Over the past 25 years for the Cleveland Browns, one thing has been pretty consistent - change. Today though, it was announced that in one way change will NOT be taking place this offseason. Both Browns GM Andrew Berry and head coach Kevin Stefanski have signed contract extensions with the team. There is no word yet on the exact details of either extension. Since the two men have been at the helm of the team,…
