It’s been an age since I last wrote. So much has happened, so I won’t attempt to catch you up entirely. However I will say this, last year I attempted to read 52 books in the year and accomplished reading 53, which it turns out can take a lot of time. I am so eager to share this last crazy…

My Life as a Red Herring (Day 19) “Infinite Delay”
This July I embarked on an epic adventure with five other close friends. In the middle of July I boarded a plane, and then another plane, and then another plane, and I think one more plane…and set off for the big skies of Montana. Our destination? Glacier National Park. Our plan was to backpack for four days and three nights…
My Life as a Red Herring (Day 17) “Flo-town”
I am now a citizen of the great state of South Carolina and live in a small eclectic town called Florence, about an hour from the beach (yep, I KNOW awesome). I found my new Buck-land and it’s a cool little coffee shop called Lula’s. The majority of the proceeds from this place go to pulling women out of the…
My Life as a Red Herring (Day 15) “Sun Rise, Sun Set”
I’m not really sure where to start. I haven’t written anything in a while because all I could think about was what I announced on social media yesterday. It was important to me that team members that I have done life with for a very long time knew first before I announced it publicly so I anxiously waited for the…
Dreams about Driving: 2013 Camaro ZL1 “Working a different Muscle”
Recently I had the opportunity to test drive a few cars. One of them being a car that I wanted to test drive the first time I saw a Motor Trend feature a story on it…the Camaro ZL1. I’ve never had the desire to own a Camaro but have had the chance to drive a number of them over the years…however…
My Life as a Red Herring (Day 14) “Survival of the Fittest”
I love new things. I like new in general, which probably fits with my personality fairly well as I love spontaneity. I love the idea of just leaving the house and finding something to do last minute. I love driving down a road I’ve never been before, as there is a clear sense of adventure and mystery involved so often…
My Life as a Red Herring (Day 13) “Stuck at Camp”
I LOVE the outdoors, pretty sure I’ve mentioned that once or thrice. I love backpacking. I also love the idea that backpacking is transient. You aren’t ever in the same camp for long. It ceases to be much of an adventure, and can easily get stale if you’ve stayed in one place for too long. However sometimes weather, wildlife or injury can…
Dreams about Driving: 1983 Honda Civic
One of my first cars was a 1983 Honda Civic. The odometer had stopped working around 183,000 so I’m sure it had somewhere close to 1,000,000 miles…or at least it looked like it did. First off let me say this was not a performance machine or family truckster, and it barely passed as a vehicle, but, it was probably the…
Dreams about Driving (And other Vehicular Adventures)
Recently my counselor encouraged me to dream. I’m not entirely sure I even know the parameters for dreaming is…I know that sounds silly but that’s the season I’m coming out of. So after praying/thinking about it this is the first thing that came to mind: One of my first thoughts was of getting to do a blog that lets…
My Life as a Red Herring (Day 10) “Gifts Pt. 2: My Favorite”
Hopefully you got a chance to read my last post…”Gifts Pt. 1″. If not you might want to do that first or you might spontaneously scream expletives out-loud (possible exaggeration). I remember the day I saw her…she was standing in line with her mom and a friend of hers and I’m pretty sure I was drooling…over her. I wish I could…
