SKETCHES FROM WHEREVER

http://sketchesfromwherever.blogspot.com/2012/09/ive-been-putting-this-off-for-some-time.html

Sunday, September 02, 2012. I can't do what they do. But can I? I've never done a back flip before. Why? No one has ever told me I couldn't. So why haven't I tried? This book has been sitting on my shelf for some time now. A book I'm afraid will make me want to try a back flip. I'll take the book down. Thumb through the pages. And place it back on the shelf. This has been the scenario for the past couple years. "Not yet" I think to myself. I'm not ready. But now the repetition is wearing. Um, what book?

SKETCHES FROM WHEREVER: Trucker Hats and Rodeos...

http://sketchesfromwherever.blogspot.com/2012/10/trucker-hats-and-rodeos.html

Sunday, October 07, 2012. Trucker Hats and Rodeos. I remember his quick wit and trying to keep up with him and my uncles. All self-proclaimed "King of the Puns.". I will remember his love of the rodeo, his western shirts and bolo ties. He would tape rodeos and re-watch them again. And for the first time now as I type this I wonder if he ever dreamed of getting out of North Jersey and becoming a real cowboy. It's bittersweet. Although his health was poor in the final years of his life it is never easy...

SKETCHES FROM WHEREVER: Five Stars

http://sketchesfromwherever.blogspot.com/2012/03/five-stars.html

Saturday, March 03, 2012. So I'm a bachelor for a long six days. Is it really only Thursday? The only benefit. that's not the right word, difference, to Mish being away is that I get explore meal options that I might not be able to if I where cooking for two. Tonight's menu comes from Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution cookbook. Italian pan seared tuna with a tomato and olive salad. Yum. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I'm a designer, barista, commercial fisherman, and husband living in Portland, OR.

Wednesday, June 27, 2012. I keep staring at this blog. Hoping it would write itself. Wondeing why I've let it collect so much dust. Am I more introverted now? Has it been a struggle of writing for myself vs. writing for an cyber audience. Or just uninspired. In 2004 I had 110 posts. This year I have five. I can't image I had any less time then than I do now. What did I write in 2004? I've been thinking about Texas. About family. Especially now with all the little additions. Ride bikes to food carts.

Monday, February 13, 2012. Or how I am learning to live a better story. Back in 2003 I read a book entitled Blue Like Jazz. Which has since been re-released under the new title Through Painted Deserts. We've been in Portland for over 4 years now. We have a great community, friends, and church. We are loving the accessibility and affordability of this city, along with being within hours of the coast or mountains. We've felt like we have been on an endless vacation. Links to this post.

Sunday, September 25, 2011. An Evening with Bon Iver. This was probably my favorite part of the whole night. Links to this post. Monday, September 19, 2011. Or how i learned to deal with the banjo and just fish for trout. I had a blast catching up with my friends. I hadn't spent a significant time with Richard in several years, and Jay and I have always talked of backpacking more. I am grateful to these guys for taking the time to get over to Portland. Jamie Oliver eat your heart out! Our nice little view.

Friday, June 17, 2011. Or how I learned to sink in mud and still gaff a fish. I leave tonight for another summer in the Last Frontier. I will miss you but I'll see you in 5 weeks. Links to this post. Friday, June 10, 2011. Or not quite a mid-life crisis but more a mid-minute crisis. I've always just thought that I would never have one. That it was just some intangible thing. Something out of my league. But I never really thought about why. So what IS stopping me? Links to this post. Bono vs. Seattle.

Tuesday, May 31, 2011. Its seems like the last few months have been spent sitting at an old wooden drawing table, hunched over under the yellow light of a swing-arm lamp. I've just completed the presentation board for my Active/Passive Systems class. Tomorrow I'll walk my classmates through it. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
