  • 1000 Days

    Posted on March 15, 2010 by Dan in lists.

    So the idea of creating a “to do before you die” list isn’t new. Recently, one of the authors of a blog I read has been sponsored by both Intel and Verizon to complete hers – it’s been crazy to read the adventures she has had. It’s turned into a bit of a movement – […]

  • City walk: McLaren Park and Excelsior (#99)

    Posted on March 8, 2010 by Dan in 100 things, city walks, San Francisco.

    Ugh, that last post about the brewery tour would have been so much better had I written it when I actually remembered something – apologies. Hardly my best work. While Dan and I have a car this month, we’ve been trying to get to different places in the city that would take a wee bit […]

  • Anchor Brewery Tour

    Posted on March 2, 2010 by Dan in San Francisco.

    Way back in January, we went on a tour of the Anchor Brewery which is a San Francisco based brewery that has been making beer since 1896. They also make whiskey and gin, holler. Their steam beer is wildly popular in the Bay Area, so popular that I had to call in October to get […]

  • Paint crew

    Posted on February 23, 2010 by Dan in friends, growing up.

    Scene: Missy and Franklin have bought and moved into their first new place. Home improvement is needed, ugly yellow paint must be covered. Cue several nights of college crew painting parties. Apparently, we really like painting because we are positively giddy in these photos. It may have just been that several of us were in […]

  • Keep the warm thoughts coming.

    Posted on February 19, 2010 by Dan in family.

    Well I know after the last blog entry, you probably only thought that things could get better. But, you would be wrong. Not three weeks after my grandmother passed away, my grandfather (her husband) peacefully passed away in his sleep at home. It came as a surprise – while we knew that he was obviously […]

  • Blog silence over.

    Posted on February 11, 2010 by Dan in family, travel.

    Well, it’s been awhile – I thought I’d update you on the ridiculousness that 2010 has been so far. I was hoping that February would be better than January, but that theory has been proved wrong already. My co-worker has me convinced that if we follow the Lunar Calendar, it will all get better after […]

  • Life is Unexpected

    Posted on February 4, 2010 by Dan in family.

    So… life has been rather hectic and unpredictable lately. Abrupt even. Some good advice we’ve been given recently: Breathe in. Breath out. Repeat. Hang in there friends; we’ll actually write something of substance to explain ourselves shortly.

  • Actually, not so much.

    Posted on January 20, 2010 by Dan in family.

    For reasons beyond my control, the everyday posting is going to have to be delayed for another time. We’re just sort of in survival mode over here, trying to get everything squared away to go be with my family for the weekend. Thanks for all the well wishes, warm thoughts and love you’re all sending. […]
