2021 Europe Day 1: Paris, Part 1 – Eiffel Tower and Roaming
We both slept well after our 24 hour travel day, me waking up at 7am and Ash up around 10am. That was 8 hours for [...]
2021 Europe: Departure to Paris
We left Ash's place around 9:30am Friday and had a friend drop us at SFO. We had a thankfully uneventful experience in the airport getting [...]

I went to bed about 2am Thursday morning; Ash was already very asleep. We both got up a little before 7:30am. There was no coffee [...]

20th Street New Duplex: Back on Track
For a variety of reasons, movement on this project slowed during the holidays then started up again mid-January. Some good progress has been made since [...]

Mendocino Retreat: Day 4, 3/16/2021
All of this doing nothing makes the days really blend together. Just saying, not complaining. It was Wednesday all day in my head for some [...]
Mendocino Retreat: Day 3, 3/15/2021
The days are going by very slowly in the best way. Friday, my last day in the old job (feels weird to say that), seems [...]
