This blog began when I was 33, now I’m in my early 50’s. My immaturity and good looks game remain strong. I live with my wife, twin boys and a 130lb Great Dane mix in the DC area.

The views published here are my own and all content (written or photos) are mine! Someday, I will grow up, just not today.
