I’m fast approaching the three year mark of walking at least 10,000 steps every day, even on days when I travel and it is otherwise difficult. A small celebration will occur when appropriate.

I was pretty committed to the work, covering a wide variety of stories across the UW campus – and participating in extracurricular […] I bought the above painting while visiting Santa Fe, New Mexico. According to my receipt, I paid $70 for it on October 22, 2015, at Keshi, the Zuni Connection – an absolutely amazing jewelry boutique located near the city center.
