I figure it’s time because a lot has happened in my life. Personal, professional, and unprofessional. So let’s get started. In January of 2014, I got divorced. Again. For the third time. I know, I know. Wtf? Believe me, nobody ever gets married thinking they’re going […]

Besides trying to grow my computer business (anyone need a website?!?!) and working on a new ending for my book On The Run (my agent told me mine was ‘outdated’ and to make it ‘more modern,’ whatever that means), I’ve […]

I thought, why not? So I looked into it. But this writing contest is not just any writing contest. This one’s different. This one has me trying to be […]

]]> A Visit To Hardees https://rosscavins.com/a-visit-to-hardees/ Wed, 26 Sep 2012 00:29:55 +0000 I ran to the grocery store today to get some onions for the homemade spaghetti sauce I’m making for dinner, and the trip took me by a Hardees restaurant. The guy behind the counter was obviously on his first day. Let me try to recreate the experience for you … The group in line before […]

It’s a small town with some attractions of a larger one. Specifically, they have one of the largest and most beautiful Rose Gardens I’ve ever seen.  No, really. The website (http://www.europas-rosengarten.de/) claims they have 11 […]

I christened him Gordie.  Gordie the German Garden Gnome. He’s colorless at the moment, but not only is he a bonafied German gnome, he’ll be a project, and he was 1/2 off … […]

We didn’t wake up until 9 AM, and even then we guzzled several cups of coffee before we even thought about what to do. Shea and Drew had both gone to work today, so we were without a car. Thus we were reduced to wandering around Schmitshausen, population […]

And by travel, I mean sitting on our asses in a car. That’s  because we drove 4 hours to the birthplace of Gnomes: Grafenroda. But first, we stopped in Mainz, Germany, to visit the Gutenburg Museum. Contrary to popular belief, this is not a museum to […]
