Something I miss from the old days

Zach and I loved to draw. We were especially enamored with the 1992 Summer Olympics, and would send each other drawings of Shannon Miller on the balance beam, or Kerri Strug on the vault.

10 Years Later

It’s been 10 years since I started blogging here on WordPress! I don’t have time to write a reflective post about the journey right now, as it’s finally a sunny evening, and I need to do some garden maintenance, but I wanted to make a quick post to mark the occasion. I’m never sure how […]
