As you may or may not know, Paul and I just got back from vacation. From outsider’s perspective it might seem that we take a lot of them, but the reality isn’t quite so rosy. I travel a lot for work (like a LOT A LOT) and due to that he can travel for free …
Resolve
I’m a little late to be talking about New Years resolutions I think. Don’t care! Everyone has an opinion about them; they’re good, they’re bad, they’re dumb, they’re useless, don’t wait to start something… the list goes on. All of these are fair, they’re all subjective, and it all boils down to one thing: Do …
Perspective
Perspective is a tricky thing at the best of times; it’s hard to gain, hard to use, and easy to lose. Even harder is to know when you’ve lost it until after the fact. We have a Sunday morning tradition of breakfast burritos and walking on the beach to talk about our week. It’s an …
Being in the Moment
This is a hard topic to write about for me. I’ve written something like 9 drafts of this post and erased them all as they wander off topic faster than I can type. For the sake of this writing I’m going to talk about just one aspect of being in the moment, and if I’m …

2017 and what not.
I’m typically not a New Year’s resolution kinda guy. I don’t typically wait until a specific time of the year to set my goals and announce them to the world- seems artificially constrictive to me. That being said I do have some goals to set for once and it’s the start of a new year …
A little hiatus
I started this post right before Halloween but it looks like I never finished it. So hey! I was gonna do a tiny hiatus 🙂 Hiatus is over! In quick summary of the last two months: – We moved to San Diego. .. Oh I guess that’s it. I gotta tell ya doing Christmas at …
My Precious
Working on photography processing tonight and I look up to see this photo hanging on my wall .. I can honestly say this is one of the top 3 pictures I’ve ever taken. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of looking at it.
