Bored
After reading about the latest Apple products yesterday I had to ask “What drives American consumerism?” Americans are bored. Or we want the latest and greatest. This is a new concept to me and I find myself content with what…
THE WRITTEN RECORD

This Week
It’s been about a solid week since re-using iA Writer exclusively, instead of Ulysses and I’m thrilled to be back. I’ve never stuck with iA Writer except for editing Markdown files but now I am using it exclusively to publish…
Geo Location
I’ve enjoyed using the DayOne journal app on my Apple devices since 2016 because it includes the current date/time, weather and location of the post in every entry. But I am not a fan of paying for an annual subscription…
Digital > Analog
I am on a hiatus with analog film photography for now. The price of film, developing, scanning is getting out of control and is not sustainable for me right now. I love the results but damn. Going all-digital for a…
Back To Flickr
I was a charter member of the photo hosting site, Flickr since it’s inception back in 2005. Since then it has been a shit-show roller coaster and grew stagnant. It’s been sold more than a few times and then again…

No Apologies
Live, travel, adventure, bless, and don’t be sorry.
Adventure Lab- Tulsa Street Art
From the creators of Geocaching.com comes a fairly new way to use GPS coordinates to find different locations and learn about them. I just published an Adventure that highlights some street murals in Tulsa. AL is a free download and…
GC9Z580
This geocache hide from a friend was just pure evil. Took a bit and I even put my hands on it, but Miss Adventure found it first. Aargh.
Walk Talk
A diary or journal of a walk is a tough format to produce. The minutia is the core of the experience but it can be hard to translate I prefer essays about walking and public spaces that are more philosophical…
A Better Map
There is a need for a Global Atlas of Pedestrian Infrastructure. Maps of pedestrian bridges, desire paths, public parks and green spaces, pedestrian only roads, sidewalks to nowhere, trails and paths. No car infrastructure in any the maps.
Born To Do It
It’s none of their business that you have to learn how to write. Let them think you were born that way.
