Yep, I’m doing it again. I know, I know, the last time I did this it was about a month and I was right back into blogging again. I can’t guarantee that I might or might not do that in the near future but for now I figured what I’ve written since 2005 (3-5 times a week) was a good snapshot into my life. Obviously there are things I don’t put out for public consumption since I always have to assume my employer and future employers will scan anything I’ve put out there and use it against me and never for

In the spirit of trying to be positive today, I figured I’d post some phone pics I’ve taken the past few days.
Here is one looking out from our office building. The leaves are at peak color down here.

The world lost a giant smile on Sunday.
In life, you have several categories of acquaintances. You have family, distant family, friends, school friends, worker friends and friends of friends.

For those of you who went to Bradley around the same time frame as I did, I have very sad news. A truly good friend of mine - Susan Dallas - passed away in her home last night. She is survived by her husband Chris and son Evan.

It’s just now getting to be cool down here and finally feeling like fall. One of our maple trees out front is just turning and I took a picture of this partially-changed leaf.
