Apologies in advance for this post's title. I don't intend it to convey any disrespect, it's more my attempt to emotionally remove myself from an incident which I found to be upsetting.

Friday night cookout at The Cheese Traveler
Despite the threat of tornadoes, a couple of the (formerly) McGuire's girls and I dropped in for the weekly cookout at the DelSo's own Cheese Traveler. What?

Please allow me to share some information about what … Continue reading Friday night cookout at The Cheese Traveler
