    I write this blog. It does not represent anyone else's opinions or perspectives. Regardless of employers or clients or any other associations, this is my blog and it does not speak for anyone else. I have learned that perception is more powerful than reality. So, we get to experience the joys of claiming and disclaiming. Isn't that super!

Simplicity rules.

This past month I moved across the country, back to the Seattle, Washington area.  I love it here!  And, I’m glad to be back.
This trip back was done with everything I own able to fit into my truck with the top carrier.  It was not really that tight of a fit.  That’s mostly because I don’t [...]

Turning Point

May 15th – Spring here in Seattle, WA is starting to feel more like Summer.
The air outside is warmer than the air inside.
Sitting out on the deck is now done without a little space heater.
I can just feel it.  It’s warmer and the daylight hours are getting longer.
Several months of AWESOME weather are ahead.
 
I think [...]

3 things that happened yesterday

I got a flat tire for the first time in about 6 years. It was not the best spot (link to quick 30 second video) to get a flat, but everything turned out ok.
I went to Les Schwab to get it fixed.  They showed me the bill that was very reasonable ($11.50) and then showed me my [...]

My 2006 Jeep Commander Photoset on Flickr

Hopefully, I’ll be able to keep my Jeep for a while.  With my current finances and undefined career ahead of me, it may be a challenge.  Here’s a link to a slideshow of My 2006 Jeep Commander Photoset on Flickr that I just updated.
UPDATE: Check out this cool Jeep Commander Blog.

closest real snow

Snoqualmie Pass, WA
Maybe I’ll go drive my Jeep in some snow today.    Too bad 4×4 Weekend isn’t around any more.

OOF to Rawlins, WY

I’m just about to head out of town here.  So, I’m setting my blog OOF.  That’s Out Of Facility for those who always ask what it means.  There really isn’t any setting, but it sounds fancy and geeky. 
I have a friend with a trail name of Skittles, who is hiking the CDT this [...]

Thursday 20060720 – on tap for today

As I mentioned in an earlier post, right now I am not going to do the new 4×4 Weekend business. So, for part of today, I’ll be returning some supplies and running errands to wrap up some of that stuff. That will take at least a few hours to go to Target, GI [...]
