I know better than to think it’s here for good, but Spring seems to have finally sprung.  Somehow, I managed to be home on a glorious Monday, with temps in the low 60s and bright sunshine and birds singing (and you get the idea).  I’m back at work today, but...

I have been pondering (my dad likes that word – it even sounds like you’re thinking) how I would handle convention stories on the blog once we started revisiting places.  We have reached that point – the blog will be a year old on March 12, and the first pictures...

I knew almost immediately that I should have made myself clearer in making the Facebook announcement.  I have NO intention of dropping this blog – I’m having too much fun with it.  I find myself in situations that just scream “blog fodder” at me and I start...

It has been crazy around here at Marco’s, trying to keep up with the show and store schedules along with making time for shoveling snow.  So logically it must be time to add another technological advance as we struggle to move into the 21st Century . . . As of...

The weather may not have been warm, but the crowd was hot in Clearwater last weekend. By the time I made my way out to pass out flyers and greet the attendees, the lobby was sardine-can full and the line stretched way out into the parking lot. See the pretty pink...

I have wrestled control of the blog content back from the truck, and we have arrived safely (more about that later) in Clearwater, Florida. The natives and the snowbirds are all griping about the chill here. But as I suspected, the lack of snow and the need for little...

Greg has stepped aside for a day to allow me some space to vent.  I am the Marco’s Paper truck, and I have gotten tired of listening to him gripe about the weather.  He should spend a few days in my tire tracks in February . . . This is me, Tuesday...

I have been taking the blame for the rotten weather in the south this winter.  In January, we went to Texas – coldest weather in at least 20 years.  Last week, we went to Georgia – same thing.  I was sensing a pattern, and getting very concerned about...
