  • The case of the deflated enthusiasm

    It has been a long road for my brother-in-law Jamie and I… For around 3 months we have been going to the gym five days a week and working out. That unique drive created by the feeling of doing something you should have been doing anyway lasted for quite a while and it was almost…

  • Winter is here…

    Yesterday’s snow storm brought winter right to our doorstep. I could tell early on in the snow storm that it was going to be pretty bad, and it was. This morning, when I went out to clear off my car, I was amazed to see that there were drifts in our front yard that were…

  • Winter Memories

    Fall, my favorite season, has come to an end with the first snow of this year. This morning as Jamie and I were lifting weights we looked out the window and saw that the snow was coming down pretty good and it was actually sticking already. I knew winter was here. Like most people I…

  • In the midst of the "switch"

    I hate using Windows. Sure, I’ve been using it for the last 10 years or so, but I hate it. I’ve never been happy with all of the little bugs that I have to put up with. I’ve never been happy with the very boring computer-ish look of Windows and I’ve never been happy with…

  • Exploring Indiana through photography

    This weekend was one of the most memorable that I’ve had for quite some time. Friday evening Kristen and I went to see Richmond Civic Theatre’s production the Diary of Anne Frank, which was quite wonderful. The highlight of my weekend however took place most of the day on Saturday. Kristen had been planning all…

  • The draw of old westerns

    I’ve never been a big fan of western movies. I remember being a little kid and being over at my grandparent’s house. My grandpa would always be watching a western and I always complained that they were so boring and why didn’t he watch something fun. It’s amazing how we can grow to like something…

  • True reality, other stuff

    Friday night while taking video around the house I had an idea. Whether it’s a good idea remains to be seen, but it’s an idea… The idea is True Reality. It’s basically an honest look at the lives of 3 Wayne County residents. The motivation was primarily the disgust with most of the "reality" shows…

  • Class antics

    As you may or may not know, I’m taking a business law class this semester in school. So far it has been more like a general law class with the majority of the discussions and examples being unrelated to business. However, that has made things very interesting. I’m constantly amazed at how many people have…

  • An experience I don’t have enough

    Yesterday I had some free time in the afternoon so I decided to drive around out in the country and take some photos. There are few things I love more than being out in the middle of nowhere and feeling the quiet around me. I drove to Abington and found a road that I had…

  • Scrapbooking

    On somewhat of a whim, Kristen and I decided to start scrapbooking this weekend. We went out and bought some supplies (including a photo printer) and sat down most of Sunday Afternoon and worked on a scrapbook to try and capture some of the memories we have. The photo printer we bought has been so…
