Ahh.. nice night for a ride!

Today I learned how vinyl siding goes on a house.

That wraps up this year of pictures... lots of things I learned over the year as well!

Since the 'What I learned' is over, I will be starting a new "What I heard" this year. Won't be posting the quotes every day, but if I overhear something funny... or just something out of context, it'll make the blog. :o)
