This picture was taken on June 22, 2003. Eight years and one day ago. Wow. It was taken with my very first digital camera, my trusty Sony DSC-P32. Remember those? All itty bitty sensor and 3.2 mega pixels of them? In all seriousness, I can’t believe this image was taken over 8 years ago; I
Hi from the cabin! We are in Edmonton this homemade long weekend to hang out with my brother, who is visiting my mom and dad from his home in Melbourne. So, in the spirit of travel I thought I would share with you some images from our not-so-recent trip to Boston. I know, I know,

This photo was taken on September 2, 2008 just outside of Stellenbosh at Fairview Winery in South Africa. They have a goat tower there. It’s amazing. Of course it is amazing, it’s a goat tower! (Does anyone else like circular reasoning as much as me?!) Please do your part to support the goat tower by
In August 2008 I quit coffee. Not only coffee, I actually quit most caffeine. When I mention this, everyone always asks “why”. And there were a lot of reasons, some of which include: I was on my way to Africa, where I was worried about only finding instant coffee; I was already going to have

You can even use this pie to impress those people who will eventually become your in-laws, even though

Late last month I got a new haircut. And I have to say, it’s probably the best haircut I’ve ever had! I lucked into the senior stylist while using a Groupon because the junior stylist called in sick. Sad for him, score for me! The following pictures were taken the day of my haircut. Cute,
This picture was taken May 27, 2008 (more than three years ago, holy moly) at the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul. I think that the lanterns may be one of the most photographed items in the Grand Bazaar, but for good reason. I always get asked why I didn’t bring a lantern home with me, and
