Just like “Gone in 60 Seconds” but with fewer cars and in half the time.

a very Covid south Florida
We pushed through a port-o-john door covered in stickers, walked past the urinals, and entered the hidden bar behind Bodega Taqueria for what I’d thought would be a quiet speakeasy like the ones we’ve visited in Denver, San Francisco, Austin, Atlanta, Rome, Paris, Kyoto, Boston, New York, Chicago, and San […]
March 2021 in 31 seconds
I like to think of March 2021 as my “month on mountains,” as we biked, skied, or hiked every weekend (and some weekdays, even)! More of that, please.
the mountains are calling
I’ve spent as many weekends as possible in 2021 on mountains. Every weekend since getting mountain bikes, my bride and I have gone west, south, or north of Atlanta to ride. One weekend earlier this month, however, we brought the children, and Jody brought his oldest daughter, and the 7 […]

St. Thomas and Virgin Islands National Park
Right before December concluded, we flew down to St. Thomas, exited the American Airlines 737, walked a few paces across the tarmac, showed some locals our negative Covid test results on my wife’s phone, and entered the Cyril E. King airport. We’d escaped the continental United States for the first […]
a 2020 recap comprised of 366 1-second video clips
More than a decade ago, when I started blogging and knew lots of folks who blogged, we’d conclude the year with some of our favorite posts and highlights from the year. But 2020 was different. It was also the first time I’ve used the “one second every day” app for […]
