  • 2017-07-13 Sand Dollar Sunset Cheeseburger.. 4.25

    I ended up booking a hotel in Rockaway Oregon because there were no rooms in Manzanita. Insert super sad face here but it’s good because I need to learn to branch out and try new things. I am now glad that I did because if it went differently I never would have experienced the Sand…

    Today seems like it was a very full day, but we did not really do much. We woke up, had breakfast, packed up and drove west to the coast. Once we hit the 101 it was time to do a little bit of sightseeing. We drove north on the highway to Oswald State Park. We…

    It’s Saturday in a life where everyday feels like Saturday now. I made myself a to-do list at the beginning of the week and as soon as I am done writing today I am going to go down to the kitchen to check it and see how I did. There are no “rights and wrongs”…

  • 2017-05-30 Denver – Make it Count

    This has been a pretty quick trip and today is my last day so I need to make it count. I’ve already been rocking and rolling on work issues this morning and I should be able to get a ton of stuff done. It’s amazing what an entire day free from interruptions and the burden…
