Random thoughts, musings and things I think are interesting…

  • Summer vacation planning update

    As I sit in the CVG airport waiting on a delayed flight to Orlando for a couple of days of business meetings, I thought I would post a quick update on the planning for our Summer vacation to Europe. A quick recap: after last year’s summer vacation to the Outer Banks, DeAnna and I realized…

  • Sacred work

    I ran across this video from one of the regional TEDx conferences.  I think this guy has it right on a lot of levels.

  • My thoughts after my first IDPA match

    I attended my first IDPA match this past weekend at the Bluegrass Sportsman’s League in Willmore Kentucky. I had a blast (no pun intended) and learned quite a bit. I will definitely be back for another match, but next time I will better prepared. Here’s some things to think about if you are getting ready…
