Labor Day Weekend
Two close guy friends came into town for the long weekend. We had a ton of fun, but it was an odd weekend. Let me explain. So Sam came in town Thursday to Sunday and Truc overlapped Saturday to Tuesday. Sam and I cruised down to Baja for a day trip on Friday. We ate …
A Gung-ho Summer
Ever since getting back from my road trip, I have been so exhausted. My body did better than expected for sleeping on an air mattress for a week and with the long drives, but man, it all wiped me out. I was talking about this with my physical therapist. I'm kind of surprised that the …
Road Trip

Inspirational Writing
When I came back from my trip, I spent a lot of time reflecting and journaling. This is one of the posts I wrote: This trip was so special. It's been something I’ve been thinking about doing for two years now. I would dream about it while on bed rest. But somehow once it approached, …
A Meaningful Experience
"A meaningful experience is a glass of wine. It needs to breathe and open up; it can only be fully appreciated when you return to it later." -Noelle Hancock My trip to Portugal and Morocco was most definitely a meaningful experience. I suspect I'll return to the memories many times as it was just one …
