Sorry, Folks!

Ladies & gentlemen, boys & girls, gearheads of all ages, I would like to apologize for not having an article for you here today.  I’ve been on the road for the last few days with our very own staff photographer (slash-my wife), Victoria, and due to some poor planning, all of our content is stuck [...]

You have to admire true gearheads;  even when the weather threatens rain, they’re still out there showing off their rides-with the hoods and trunks open, nonetheless!

The Summer So Far

Planning a wedding is a lot tougher than it sounds.  Mostly, it takes a heck of a lot of time.  Between tracking down our wonderful but busy minister, to mailing invitations, to finding toy tractors for the centrepieces (hey, I’m a farmboy) I hardly had a chance to pick up a camera this week.  So, [...]
