Feelin’ Husky
I wanted to write (which I just did), “but not Ferlin Husky. If you don’t know, and care to, he has an entry on Wikipedia. So, just one more piece of evidence of just how ancient I truly am. Now that we’ve established that I’m not Ferlin. I am in Nebraska. Woke up after a… Continue reading

Mighty MO!
For those who have read a few of my blog posts, especially the ones from my Out West trip of last year, you’ll likely be aware of my state to get a sort of adventure rig setup for more trips like that. Well, I have begun. Oh I sort of began with my First Date… Continue reading

Indiana Calling
To kick off this Colorado trip, I thought I’d swing by my cuz David’s house. And the trip was going sooo smoothly. Until it wasn’t. And that was about thirty minutes from my destination. Spittin’ distance we’d say down in the mountains. An Appalachian storyteller would start off like… “I was a gittin’ it along… Continue reading

A little trip…

All trips, for me at least, seem a tad daunting at the outset. And for the few days prior. But I usually settle into the new routine fairly quickly. This trip however had some significance. Of course I’m talking about (ad nauseum, sorry) my ThrillerFest writer’s conference. If you’ve read my previous posts you’ll be… Continue reading

Pitches, Bitc-…
(Let’s keep this PG) PitchFest. What is everything a “fest” now? Well, yeah. At least at ThrillerFest it is. And I’m here for it. Thursday May 7th, for three hours in the afternoon, I was there for it at least. This is my first writer’s conference, and therefore my first time at the compendium of… Continue reading

Progress so far (ThrillerFest that is)
I have just published my post that was going to ThrillerFest. Sorry for the delay. You see, the first morning I was feeling a little… verklempt. I could tell you were all talking amongst yourselves. This being my first foray into the wide world of writing, the disorientation I was feeling was a bit overwhelming.… Continue reading

Goin’ to California…
With an aching in my legs! I’m in San Jose California for the Serena (IMDB) premier at the Cinequest film festival. I’m really excited to see this movie. Not to name drop, but I’m friends with the screenwriters. What’s up with my legs? It seems that PG&E had some maintenance to do at my hotel… Continue reading

Any day fishing…
As the old saying goes. And that day it was truer than ever. I have been fishing in my life, but it’s been a while. Yesterday I amended that situation. I recently enjoyed a guided fishing trip and tutorial on fly fishing from High Flying Flies out of Bristol. Here’s a quick recap. The day… Continue reading

Not an ashhole…
An Ashfall. The kind that spews out of a volcano. And it happened around twelve million years ago. Give or take. It also happened in my old stomping grounds. Idaho. Southwestern Idaho. The cool thing is that it’s not exactly where it used to be. Twelve million years ago that is. I’m not the oldest… Continue reading

Just like Mr. Gump
I’m on vacation. But this vacation is coming to a close. I left Keystone South Dakota this morning bright and early. I rode north and got in I-90 in Rapid City. As I headed east I noticed the traffic picking up. Still nothing as compared to back east, but much more traffic than I’ve been… Continue reading
