REVIEW – I’ve put up some lights each holiday, but usually a string or two, and usually within reach of a normal step ladder.

So a review opportunity for

REVIEW – With a wedding coming up, and the opportunity to review the latest Apple Watch band from Nomad Goods, the Stratos Band, I couldn’t help but marry these two situations (almost as I couldn’t help make that terrible pun)!
