I called Mom today. As I often want to do, when I call her, I remind her of all the terrible things that happened to me during my childhood in Denver, trying to lay blame for everything wrong in my life at her feet. Today was no different. “Mom,” I started. “I can’t believe you […] I have a lot of photos that I haven’t gotten around to uploading as promptly as I should have. Today I managed to upload a few and I thought I would share three of my favorite shots out of the bunch. You can, of course, see all of my photos on my Flickr stream.
The Tour Starts Here! I really like Canada. It’s easy to see why people want to live here—heck, I could see myself living in Canada. Friday I took advantage of the free tour of downtown Toronto offered by the Downtown Yonge Business Improvement District. I forget the name of my tour guide, but she […] This morning I slept in a bit—I’ve had an exhausting week.

It seems odd to me that the powers would chose to renovate the statues at the height […] As it was dark when we arrived, CQ and I had no idea what the area looked like until we woke up in the morning. For me, that first glimpse came at 06:30 or so when I emerged from the hut and looked around. We’d walked across a grassy field after dinner and I had […] Swaziland was quite the adventure for CQ and me. After landing on time at the Jo’burg airport, we got our rental car and started heading away from Swaziland—so we lost about 20 minutes there; once oriented we headed the correct direction, stopping in Witbank at a brand spanking new mall where we parked by the […] |
