  • War of Art

    I just finished a book “The War of Art” by Steven Pressfield. The subtitle says it all: Break Through the Blocks and Win Your Inner Creative Battles. What I like about the book is that it seems like you are reading his bedside journal. Each chapter is a page or two where he describes the…

  • Simplicity, humility and Craigslist.org

    When I was in San Francisco, I was walking over to the local grocery store. They don’t have chain grocery stores in San Francisco. Kei and I were cooking dinner late on a Saturday night, so we went out of our way to find an open convenience/grocery story. On our way, we passed by a…

    I took this video in Kauai, across from the Lawai Beach Resort in Poipu. There is nothing more peaceful than swimming with a sea turtle.

  • Going offline for awhile

    I’m going to be switching web hosting companies from Midphase to A2 hosting. This site may be down for a few days but should be worth it. Not that you’d notice, with the sparsity of posts these days. My hope is that I can ratchet back my hours at work and devote more time to…

  • Your 4 Day Forecast

    Yep, that’s it, our forecast in Seattle. I’m getting ready to settle into Fall here.
