Labor Day. Tomorrow many of you will be back in school (if you haven’t already started school). Welcome back! I hope your summer was restful. I know that mine was. I’ll be heading back to school (or schools) as well this week. A couple days ago I received this wonderful […]
Marie and I are down here in sultry Arkansas visiting our daughter and her boys for a couple of days. I’m writing on her new 21.5 inch iMac and I have to say that it an absolute joy to work on. So much so, that I’m going to get one […]
We’re back up in Seattle for our youngest grandson’s 4th birthday. I love birthdays, especially my grandchildren’s birthdays. It’s a beautiful day for a party. In spite of the festivities I managed to get a little work in this morning on the third Cryptid Hunter (no title yet) installment. I’m […]
This post is a little of everything. We’re on our way up to the Seattle area this morning to celebrate Jack’s (grandson #3) birthday. We got him a pair of nice binoculars (all 6 year olds should have good pair of binoculars). Quit trip. We’ll be back tomorrow with Jack […]

I’m back with my friends at Clearlake Middle School in Cocoa, Florida for my 4th time in the past ten years. Hitched a ride from Melbourne with principal Mark Mullins. It’s a great school with very cool 7th and 8th graders. I got the chance to speak to all of […]
Up at 3 to catch a flight to Orlando. I had a wonderful 24 hours at the farm with my family. Flight out of PDX is delayed because of a battery problem. What’s interesting to me is that when they make the announcement no one sitting here waiting to board […]
I guess I’m working the graveyard shift now… I was asleep by 6PM last night and up at 3AM this morning working on I,Q2 after a decent amount of sleep. I spoke at Westbrook Intermediate in Friendswood, TX this morning, and Clear Lake Intermediate in Houston, TX this afternoon. Westwood […]
Up at 3 and on my way to Texas for the week after a day at the farm… Yesterday after packing, or I should say re-packing, I spent the rest of the day transcribing what I had scratched into the Moleskine the previous week into my laptop. To my horror […]
