T-Rex’s Open House
We thought we’d have some friends and associates over to see the new office and home, but T-Rex made it clear these visitors were in his domain:

A Vegan New Year
I’ve stopped eating animal products this year. I’ve been mulling over what to say about it for some time, because while I’m excited about the change, I’m also apprehensive. The exciting part is that I seem to have a natural affinity for this diet, and I think it’s the single most effective action I can…

Fever Driving
Our drive keeps handing us surprises. We go through Moab, but it isn’t our destination. This feels wrong again every few minutes at least until we reach I-70.

Santa Fe to Delores River Drive

Cactus Spine Injury
We were getting ready to climb at El Rito this weekend, when I noticed an irritating cactus spine injury on my ankle was painful enough to make me limp. The injury was already two weeks old, red, and inflamed. After some research and soliciting some advice, I decided to stay off of it for a…

Doh!
I’m pretty much settled in here in Santa Fe now, and my various projects are all underway. Too many projects, it felt like this week. Far from reveling in my freedom from obligatory work, I bit off too much of my own work and got myself even more stressed than I used to be! I…
