Blood Sweat & Sawdust


Last weekend marked the end of my procrastination for a particular project I've been putting off: To design and build my own poker table. Two sheets of Birch and four U2 albums later, I was well on my way to Hold'em heaven. Here's a sneak peak.

Fall Is On The Way

Fall has been teasing me these last few days. It is by far the one season I enjoy most. I unpack the fleece, open the windows, and breathe in the fresh morning air. Nature's splendor displayed at full volume, brief as it is, will paint a vivid landscape demanding scenic drives at a moment's notice. As quickly as they change from green to gold, those leaves abandon their branches and return to earth. Rake 'em up and dive in, then rake them all up again. Long sleeves, pumkin guts, and hot chili simmering on the stove. Autumn air brings an extra level of comfort to each day. It's easy, it's lazy, it's everything sliding towards hybernation. I see it around the corner...Fall is on the way.
