Bit late, but I wanted to post a couple thoughts on the just-passed Thanksgiving. My immediate family (mom and sisters) converged on my eldest younger sister’s house in Durham, NC. We had an absolutely fantastic turkey covered in some sort of fennel-based concoction, courtesy of my brother-in-law. It was succulent. Rapturous, even. The trip there [...]

This past weekend at Oak Island, NC was extremely fun. My sister got married, I got to catch up with family and friends, and I got to bask in the beauty of the ocean and great weather. It was very depressing to leave. The beach house we stayed in was surprisingly nice. The game room [...]
Memories of the Sun

I think that Memories of the Sun would be a fitting name for a Pittsburgh blog. When I was younger, I loved dark, cloudy weather. I’ve never been a fan of the steel gray overcast that doesn’t change, but it didn’t bother me much. After experiencing it nearly nonstop for the past few months, it [...]

Figured I’d post this promo video the GWAP group did. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to participate in the filming of it since I was visiting my dad and family in Ohio for the first time after many years. So unfortunate in that I missed the filming, but the alternative was worth it. Johnny Lee had [...]

We went to a Pittsburgh Pirates game tonight. They got their asses handed to them by the Phillies. It was so sad. Donna’s brother and his wife were visiting and their husky has separation anxiety. In the 7th inning, we got a call from our neighbor that an old woman came around complaining and saying [...]
Willow and the Frisbee 2

While at my mom’s house in Greenville, South Carolina, I played a little frisbee with Willow (my australian shepherd) in the back yard. I took some video where I was throwing the frisbee, then switched over to my mom throwing it. However, insanely, when my mom started throwing I put the cap on and failed [...]

So still in York on the Thanksgiving holiday, doing stuff with Donna’s family. Today we ate dinner with her cousin Connie and son Dillon. They are cousins, but were really close growing up, so are more like sisters. So to Dillon we are Aunt Donna and Uncle Jason. He is crazy cute and strong like [...]
