December 2, 2018 A Farewell It has been an integral part of my life for over twenty years. We’ve had ups and downs. I’ve endeavored to pay a constant amount of attention to it, able to lavish more some months than others. We’ve been through a lot: several apartments, a military deployment, a condominium, a… Continue reading A Farewell. Resurrected Post.

Long Expected Parties. Resurrected Post.
November 18, 2018 Long Expected Parties I am celebrating the HA’s fifth birthday today. It isn’t her birthday yet; that will occur later this week. But the important point of a child’s birthday party is the party. Sunday works better for a gathering of her little friends than does the day after Thanksgiving. Shortly… Continue reading Long Expected Parties. Resurrected Post.
Not Entering an Ass-Kicking Contest Any Time Soon. Resurrected Post.
September 23, 2018 Not Entering an Ass-Kicking Contest Any Time Soon I’m staring down fifty. As of this writing that day remains about six months away, slouching inexorably closer. I fight the inevitable as best I may, hitting the gym five days a week, maintaining a generally healthy diet. So I think it was more… Continue reading Not Entering an Ass-Kicking Contest Any Time Soon. Resurrected Post.
The State of the Web Log. Resurrected Post.

The time has arrived for me to allow the actions of complete strangers to influence my happiness: for people I’ve never… Continue reading Investment. Resurrected Post.
Brew Day. Resurrected Post.
August 26, 2018 Brew Day Brew day! It has been a while. This is my first attempt at brewing entirely from mail order ingredients. I enjoy living out where I do, but to date I do not have access to a conveniently located home brewing supply store. I bought a new, larger brew kettle… Continue reading Brew Day. Resurrected Post.

Musings in Motion. Resurrected Post.
August 12, 2018 Musings in Motion The HA spent a few days in California with her grandparents. Currently MBW and I are en route to pick her up at roughly the halfway point, specifically a casino about twenty five miles south of Roseburg, Oregon. I believe the HA’s excursion benefited everyone. Her grandparents get grandkid… Continue reading Musings in Motion. Resurrected Post.
Beach Weekend. Resurrected Post.
July 1, 2018 Beach Weekend The weather has become suspiciously summer-like. You know what that means? Beach weekend. Friday afternoon I drove MBW and the HA to Lincoln City where we met up with friends. Of course I had to check out the local brewpub, The Rusty Truck, for dinner. Nice, laid back roadhouse… Continue reading Beach Weekend. Resurrected Post.
