Otterbox 7

REVIEW – When I got my first smartphone, I was working in stream restoration, a field that involves a lot of water, rock, and heavy equipment. A co-worker told me that I needed to get an OtterBox case for my phone since they were the toughest and provided the most protection.  That was the first

REVIEW – Since we moved into our new home last year, I have been on a never-ending quest to add more light to our backyard.  My dream would be to run low-voltage LED lighting throughout the yard and trees.  Until I get more money saved, I have resorted to using solar lights in the backyard.
