When Fiskateer Paths Cross

The Last Photo of Summer

Well, Labor Day weekend is winding down and that means that summer is finally coming to an end.  I did manage to get one day off this holiday weekend, so yesterday I went out to dinner with my parents.

A Beautiful Mess

I spent months hoping to be chosen as a Lead Fiskateer but there was always this question in the back of mind- what exactly would I be doing? Well, now I know and I thought I would share with you what it’s like for a day in the life of a Lead Fiskateer. […]
