Wired for Pink…

You might have noticed a bit of a color change around here. I decided to go Pink for October. Breast Cancer awareness is important to me as well as to Allison. We decided to get out blogs into a pink theme for the month of October. I learned about this project through Joana of Nanashi-Inc.net. So if you want to show your support for Breast Cancer Awareness for the month of October set your theme to Pink.

Even though it is Breast Cancer awareness month, I have a project of my own to help raise money for a family whose whole lives has been affected by Cancer. I created a 2008 Photo-A-Day Calendar and I am giving 2/3 of the profits to the Machinski Family. My goal is to sell 100 calendars before November 24th and raise $200.00 to give to the Machinski family. Becky Machinski was a classmate of mine in High School and both she and her husband have both battled Cancer. Becky’s Cancer is gone but her husband Mike is still battling Cancer and it has depleted their savings. I can’t imagine how tough this has been for them but they are a strong couple with three beautiful little girls. You can see the love that they have for each other and they are working very hard to stay positive and to stay financially above water. So during the month of October while you go Pink think about maybe helping donate to the Machinskis by buying a 2008 Photo-A-Day calendar or donating directly through my PayPal donation button specifically created for the money I am donating to the Machinskis.

Outdoor World Coming soon…

At Gillette Stadium, they are building a number of stores. One of them is an Outdoor World. The first time I ever went to one of these was in Missouri. It was amazing and huge, they had four floors and a restaurant on the top floor with a 35,000 gallon salt water tank behind the bar. It was huge and one of the coolest things I have ever seen on the road.

The new store over in Foxboro doesn’t look as big but the developer must have had a good realtor never-the-less. The spot is prime and the new complex looks to be a popular place when all is said and done. And now I will have a giant outdoor store to go to for me gear.
