Drive In
Mile: 113,200 Checked out a place new to us and boy are we glad we did. Located in northern Brookfield, called jj Stacks. Action Jackson picked up his bud Alejandra and we were off for dinner and a movie! They had all kinds of stuff…

Independence Day
Everyone please give this a like and share if you think America is the world’s greatest country as we celebrate our Independence on today, July 4th. When Jackson first asked why we always fly the flags off the back of Ole Red I explained that…
Chill Out
Mile: 112,953
It had been a rather not good day, which is not typical in our house. It was time for a reset. Off to South Farms it was! If you recall this was where they put on outdoor concerts during Covid and my wife was able to see her favorite singer, Grace Potter, not once but twice!
We had heard about South Farms having a Thursday event called South Farms Social so it was time to check out what this was all about. They had a small little stage setup so I guy with a small amp could play his guitar.
They also had a wood fired pizza oven truck, hot dog cart and a bar you could get beverages of all kinds. Action Jackson saw his classmate Juliette from school so they wandered off to play in the creek. We highly recommend this to anyone in the area looking for a chill Thursday evening.
We then had to wash our pizza down with ice creams so off to Popeyes (one of our faves it was). Dad had to work the next day so it was back to reality.
Action Jackson is almost 8. Crazy to think but we probably only have 4-5 years more of adventures before he will be off doing his own thing with his friends or we aren’t cool enough to hang anymore. Going to make th most of it while we can!

World’s Largest Spud & LFGM
Mile: 112,750 It was a Wednesday and Jackson had already been off for a few weeks. I had to watch him and decided to only work a half day because I am beginning to finally realize that tomorrow is never guaranteed. We went up to…
Let’s Get to Work!
Mile: 112,550 We have a building we are working on constructing so Jackson gets to see Papa whenever he drops off construction equipment. This night was some buckets that he needed to take before they poured the slab. Nothing like cleaning some chocolate off your…
It’s Stampede Time
Mile: 112,327
It was off to what’s called the Goshen Stampede. They take a fairground and convert it to good old-fashioned Stampede!
They had a band playing and plenty of food to choose form. The frozen lemonade hit the spot. They even had a few monster trucks. They had a petting zoo, rides, a ride on bull and a rodeo.
Action Jackson and his mom were a pro at throwing the darts to hit the balloons so he walked home with some shwag!
Hope your day was just as fun!

Donuts
Mile: 112,400 Sometimes Ole Red needs a tune-up and Action Jackson is always willing to lend a helping hand. Stop to see his buddy Uncle Larry at Dunkin Donuts. He’s not really his Uncle but he’s seen him almost every Sunday at the donut shop…

Get ‘Er Done
Mile: 111,958
There was a nasty haze in the air from the wildfires up in Canada. I could only imagine how horrible it must be for them up there. Put Jackson to work on some railing painting! Not too shabby if I do say so myself!

Mile: 111,888 It was country day at school and we capped it off by snagging some ice cream the new ice cream stand in town, Kimberly Farms. They have soft serve and hard ice cream with all kinds of toppings. Action Jackson definitely approves! I…
