In an effort to add some discipline to my easily distracted mind, I am creating this blog to practice writing and photography on a somewhat regular basis. The title comes from a story about my Irish Grandfather. When I was a baby anytime my mother would ask him if he wanted to hold me, he would say "Does he still shit in his pants?" It sounds like something I would say about a baby and it makes me laugh every time I think about it. BTW, YOU CAN CLICK ON ANY PICTURE TO SEE IT FULL SIZE.

February 10 65 Degrees
Sure this picture may look familiar. Go back to January 27th. Just two weeks ago. That picture was also taken from my front stoop. But what a difference a record high temperature of 65 degrees has made. We can see the greenish brown lawns for the first time since Christmas. The alley isn't covered in two inches of solid ice. Three weeks ago it was -19 degrees, today was 84 degrees warmer. All the snow & ice is gone in just 3 days. Of course we now have flood warnings but it felt great to work in a t-shirt today and drive with the window down. Back to reality the next few days, but maybe we have broken Old Man Winter's back. We'll see.
