March 2023 – Key West and Nashville

In March, I saw some live music, a live William Shatner, volunteered to chaperone my 2 middle schoolers’ field trip to Nashville, and my wife and I went to Key West for a weekend work conference, and all were very enjoyable! Here are March 2023’s 31 seconds:

February 2023, and my friend Hal

February is always among my favorite months of the year, as I attend my annual Mardi Gras legal conference and, back in the day, the Dad 2.0 conference, along with an occasional ski trip and/or AAJ conference (last year I had 4 trips in February!). This year was similar–my bride […]

January 2023

During the first month of the new year, I did some group rides with my Harley Owners Group, I argued with some defense lawyers, and we rucked or mountain biked in the nearby woods. I saw my favorite dental hygienist again. I went up to the Hike Inn with L2L […]

June 2022

In June, I spent my 47th birthday weekend in Chicago, where we kayaked the river, had dinner at Alinea, saw a “close up” magic show, visited another Hemingway home (his childhood one this time!), enjoyed late night speakeasies, and got Covid again (the Mrs and I did, anyway). Before I […]
