I know for some of you who have been following my series of stories you must be at that point where you are wondering how do all these crazy things happen to one person? The answer is I am not really sure, and it has continued into my adulthood.

I have lots of great memories of my childhood which for the most part was pretty awesome, enjoyed having a big family, but this run in with my brother was not so great.

Here is another addition to my Jeanne Tries series, just to be clear I have fished before, but it has been a really long time.

This little adventure took place at our tennis club we belonged to, they had tennis courts of course and an Olympic sized swimming pool with  a low and high diving board, which I guess looked awfully interesting to me at the time.

I have been told by a number of people that I have the most hilarious stories from when I was younger and even a few in my adulthood as well. I guess I have this knack for weird things to happen to me, so I thought I would share them with the world.

When this idea was first proposed to me I am not gonna lie a sense of dread came over me. I knew this would be a monumental task before I even started, but trying new things is what this is all about.

Continuing with my adventures of trying something new every week, the incredibly kind staff at Nemadji Golf Course in Superior let me hit a few balls at their driving range, and it was not pretty.

Ozzie is a 35 year old Desert Tortoise at Lake Superior Zoo and I was lucky enough to not only get to hang out with him, but do a few Zoo Keeper Duties as well.

Cooper and I were discussing cursive writing on the morning show and how some kids do not even know how to sign their names, because they  never have to write in cursive, or write period anymore. So, I thought I would give it a whirl.

The next challenge I've accepted as part of my "Jeanne Tries" series is one I have (a bad) experience with from my time in broadcasting school. Forecasting with a green screen is a difficult challenge, trying to point at things on a wall that aren't really there.

Every week I have set my sights on trying new things and this week I went out to see just how friendly Canal Park Seagulls are, and yeah it did not end well.

It's National Donut Day and what better way to celebrate by having a donut eating contest. I challenged Jeanne to see who could eat more donuts in one minute.
