Growing up nomad
It's on a late sunday evening, sipping a good local red wine, listening to old 80's tunes on the bedroom system, that I come to realize something about how I grew up ( Read more... ) -

The Brisket
The brisket for this weekend’s BBQ worked out pretty well. I figured I should jot down the steps I go through to make it in case anybody was curious. It’s not terribly complex or special; just a filtering down of a bunch of other people’s methods until I found one that works repeatably and easily for me. While it looks like a really long write- ( Read more... ) -
Memorial Weekend BBQ (Sunday) and Going Away Party
So my buddy Andrew is leaving the Bay Area for Seattle at the start of next month. He wanted to hold a little shindig to see a few friends before he leaves, but the place he currently lives is all but empty; hard to hold a party with no furniture! :) So we gladly offered to host ( Read more... ) -

Combined with the laptop work provided, a MBA13, I simply didn't need a laptop of my own. This has been slightly annoying as ( Read more... ) -
Chikkinz, day 3
They're doing great so far. I check the water and food 2-3 times a day, check them all for general health and pastybutt (a real condition that can go real bad) in the mornings and evenings. So far they're eating and drinking like mad which is very good, and they seem to be doing great. It's the usual cycle of Eat All The Crumbles, Drink All The ( Read more... ) -
Cats'n'Chicks
My parents left for the wilds of Texas two days ago. They've been out here 'wintering' since October, so it was a good, long visit that I thoroughly enjoyed. Not going back with them, however, is their little cat Sunshine; she's now our little cat here at the house instead. Multi-month RV life was proving difficult with their adopted-stray.

Ride up to Bald Peak
It's been a while since I last rode a motorcycle up Hicks Road to Bald Peak, just below Mt. Um. I put all four GoPros (two black, two silver) and the Prism cam on my Honda Goldwing Valkyrie and headed on up since it was a beautiful day ( Read more... )
