This being retired is much harder work than work was. Although, let’s be honest it was a guvmint job. I remember there were lots of meetings.
I am sure we talked about some pretty important stuff and figured out innovative and remarkable solutions so that when we showed up on your doorstep and...
I am in Denali National Park in Alaska, and a large grizzly bear keeps looking at me like I am a plump corndog.
It is unclear if he found me or I found him, but I decide to give the jerky to my too to kind and loving wife and I tell her that I will meet her back at the camp.
I have a head start on...
I am sitting in the airport with two of my grandkids and my too kind and loving wife. I always have my too kind and loving wife with me when I take the grandkids because my children don’t think me and the grandkids make very good decisions when we are left alone. I Dunno!
We have made it a...
As part of President Trump’s effort to make America great again, he has written 142 Executive Orders in his first 100 days. At this feverish pace you may have missed a few important life changing data releases. All the information related to UFOs and the Kennedy assassination was released, which...
Last time we talked, I was standing on the edge of the Hole in the Rock looking down towards Lake Powell.

But I was undaunted by the challenge that lay in front of me. You have to realize that my too kind and loving wife is a direct decedent...
I am in New Mexico, and you might be wondering why I am still out wandering.
But before you get all judgmental, remember “All that wander are not lost.” But sometimes we are lost but faking that we are not.
I can’t really explain it, but my too kind and loving wife and I have been living out of...
I’m Back. I used to wonder why my dog would roll around in the dirt like he was bathing in it, get up, shake off and then seemingly smile at me like he was saying, “Oh I am so happy to be here, let’s go explore.”
But that is exactly how I felt when I got back from Tonga and made it back to red...
We have four days before we leave Tonga so we are trying to not buy any more groceries because my mission companion declared that we are just going to eat whatever we have left.
Here in Tonga, we don’t waste anything because if I have learned anything on this mission, it is that Americans have way...
As I am writing this, I am in Tonga starting to pack my bags. Eighteen months have gone by fast.
I am leaving most of my clothes and a few assorted tools I purchased; I am packing a few small mementos and a suitcase of gratitude and wisdom.
When we got here, we committed to “say yes to...
