As I sat in our backyard on a recent Sunday, the smell of wonderfully seasoned chicken wings wafting up from our Big Green Egg grill, I came to realize I let my family and friends down this summer just by not barbecuing more. The Egg needs a good workout, and...

So, it’s a Friday morning. I’m wiping sleep from my eyes and manage to run my electric shaver over my stubble. A look in the mirror reveals a bleary-eyed, middle-aged man whose goatee is in bad need of a trim. No problem. Out comes the rechargeable beard...

So, we bade farewell to one of our nephews on the weekend, as Connor is off to Toronto to live with his father and complete the final two years of his high school education. How do we say goodbye and good luck at the Corcoran residence? Barbeque! He has...

Sometimes, the best place to spend a hot summer day in a busy Chatham-Kent is beside a pool. For us, that was the key this past weekend. We went over to friends Pete and Arlene’s Saturday afternoon to hang out and visit with friends of theirs who were down...

Was that a great weekend or what, Chatham-Kent? Sorry, that was a rhetorical question. Wow. Thank you, RM Sotheby’s, the Historic Downtown BIA, the organizers of the Threshing Festival, and everything else that took place. Yes, downtown Chatham was in the...

I’ve lived in Chatham since May of 2001. In that time, I’ve crossed paths with Rob Myers – the “RM” in RM Auto Restoration and RM Sotheby’s – a handful of times. Those included various press events, at Bike Fest when he was out with his cute...

On a recent morning, one where the sun was actually shining, I gave the wifey a scare via a text message. I went out to get in my truck, which was parked across the street, to wait to drive my daughter to school. Finn, the cat, came outside with me. He...
