Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Ah, St. Patricks Day. Such a confusing day. To the Irish, the day honors a great Saint. For too many others, it’s a day dedicated simply to green beer and debauchery. Our family has long had a devotion to St. Patrick. Our admiration was made all the mo…

Our dishwasher is broken, so being a thoughtful husband, I felt I should lend a helping hand on the dishes, or, we could go out to eat. Tuesday happened to be “Steal the Glass” Night at Capital Ale House, featuring Breckenridge Brewery, so…

Quantico USPSA Match
