The Road to Mt. Whitney (Part 5: The Summit)
Like the mornings of many life altering events, our journey to Mt. Whitney started at IHOP. The group met at our house at 8:00 a.m. and was knee deep in syrup and eggs by 8:30. Once we were fully charged with sugar and carbs, we hopped in the car and started the 3 hour drive… Continue reading

Procrastination
I’ve always been one to procrastinate when something very important needs to get done. Key words are “very important”. Actually, we could ditch the “very”. If it’s something important, I’ll probably put it off. If I’m hungry, I won’t waste any time. If the new Ed Sheeran album comes out, you’ll find me on iTunes… Continue reading
