Blog

Thirty-seven didn’t turn out to be the year I expected it to be, in some ways that was good and in some ways that was very much not good. Leading off with the bad because it really felt like a dark cloud over the year, work drove me to some dark places. For me, I […]

Photographing a Lunar Eclipse on 35mm Film

Blog, Photography

If you were to ask my wife why I do all of the hard things I do, she’ll tell you that it is because I can. And she isn’t wrong. I genuinely love to find out about something new, or old that I should be able to do and then spend days and weeks researching […]

I have a problem where I want all the peanut butter I can have and this seemed like a practical solution. The peanut butter I made turned out quite well considering I hadn’t made it before […]

That Yearly Thing


Peace Corps

I meant to write this post every day for the past two weeks. I have excuses, but I won’t bother writing them. 2011 is over and 2012 is here. I’m not going to suggest that this is the last year we’ll be alive because all that fuss about the Mayans is misinterpreted. They didn’t predict […]
