Lake Wales, FL – Feb 2026
February 25, 2026This month has been out of this world – literally! Highlights included my first ever visit to Kennedy Space Center, as well as getting an email containing my satellite selfie from Crunchlabs principal Mark Rober. I had honestly forgotten about the selfie as I had signed up for it some time ago. Mark is a […]

Lake Wales, FL – Jan 2026
January 30, 2026On the one hand, I’ve been as busy as I’ve ever been. Yet on the other hand, there doesn’t seem to be much to report here in the blog. So, this one will be a bit on the shorter side – probably a welcomed change based on some of the earlier marathon blogs I’ve published […]

Lake Wales, FL – Dec 2025
December 24, 2025Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from here at the home base. Time has absolutely flown by since I’ve returned here to Lake Wales. Catching up with doc appointments, re-engaging with my technology committee duties here in the community, and spending time with family and friends has all but consumed most of my spare time. Then […]

NM, AR, FL – Nov 2025
November 22, 2025Well, that’s a rap! I spent the last few weeks of October making a mad dash across the country, mostly following along I-40, making my way back to the east coast and to my home base of Florida. Indeed it was a dash as each of my stops beginning with Gallup, NM and all along […]

OR – Sep 2025
September 10, 2025It has been said that the pristine and pure clarity of the waters of Crater Lake produce the darkest and most vibrant blue hues of anywhere on earth. Indeed I found this to be true.

WA (Cont’d) – Aug 2025
August 27, 2025There are fewer things more iconic here on the Pacific North West part of Washington state as Mt Rainier. The snow and glacier capped mountain towering over 14,000 feet above sea level is visible from areas all throughout Washington – assuming that is if it’s a clear day. Seeing this majestic mountain reminds me of […]

WA – Aug 2025
August 10, 2025Welcome to Washington! Home to lots of beautiful mountains, a plentiful supply of really great wine, and some super expensive fuel. While the national average for a gallon of diesel fuel is currently $3.80, as you can see here, the price is significantly higher. I will admint this particular station was one of the highest […]

ID, WA – Jul 2025
July 21, 2025Imagine if you will, some 13,000 years ago, what you see today as represented above would have actually looked like this here on the right. It would have been the largest water fall in the world. But alas, time has changed, and what is left is a mostly dry ravine that once held a mighty […]
