It's been awhile since I've posted a new blog post.  I have quite a few in my back pocket that I had started, but for one reason or another, I had never finished them.  Maintaining a blog that has no real purpose other than having others read about my daily life is really difficult -- I'd like to think I have this rock star life where everything's exciting, but the fact of the matter is that for the most part, my life is pretty mundane and frankly, I like it that way.  That's not to say extraordinary things don't happen to me every day, but I find the smallest of things extraordinary.  I try not to take anything for granted and try to appreciate everything.  Trying to keep posts shorter so that maybe, just maybe, I'd post a bit more.  

That said...

My wife and I are off on a week-long cruise to Alaska.  Not too far of a jaunt for us as we're driving to Seattle in the morning and boarding there.  I'll come back with photos to share!

Take care.
