Surgeon Generals Warning...


Just in case you were unclear as to what can happen in the case of a fall off of a very large cliff, there are handy reminders all along Washington State Park trails to help you understand.

Out for a Stroll on the Road.


I am pretty sure that this is a bird most people don't see walking down the street most days, but here in Port Townsend, it doesn't seem so strange.

Why "mid life crisis?"


I named this blog mid life crisis because sometimes it seems that that is where I am, right smack dab in the middle of a nice little life crisis. Not in the drama my dog died and my wife left me sort of crisis, but more in the "what the hell am I doing with my life and why haven't I done it already" sort of crisis.

I have, of late, been studying alot of the common material about self fulfillment and all of the "what do I do with my life" books I can get my hands on to try and puzzle out a way to figure myself out. Sounds wierd that I should be looking without to figout my withins, but there you have it.

It has been pretty enlightening, and has caused me to stop and release many things that were "Big Things" in my life. But I have realized that until I do, there will be no room for that which is supposed to be there. I have to open a channel for the greater good.

Hands? We don't need no stinkin' hands!


Sometimes the only way we can get this little pumpkin to go to sleep is by driving her, in fact, it is most times that that is the only way.

Lil' Crab Hands



I don't know, have you ever seen anything quite as cute as this? I mean she just went into the kitchen, opened the drawer with the oven mits, put them on the ground, slid both hands in and started walking around being a ham. Hehe :)

Mt. Rainier from North Beach



This view is one that I get to look at pretty much daily if the clouds are few, and it is really pretty stunning when the sun is coming up, as it is in this picture. Nice.

Time To Hunt

I have been reading Stephen Hunter today, about 300 pages worth, and have been totally captivated. It has been a while since I have totally lost myself in a book. Lately I have been losing myself in my game, Counter-Strike, and chatting alot with my new friends on that server.
