Hanging out with my iPad at Captree

Robert Moses Bridge (Sephia)

Wow, the antiglare screen I got for my iPad is REALLY starting to pay off at the beach here. Too bad Instagram can’t automatically post a photo straight to my blog though.

Texas is… well not what I expected…

Whenever I thought of Texas an image of a desert complete with cactuses and tumbleweeds always came to mind. I envisioned a state filled with cowboy boots, horse manure and spittoons, and where no color existed except the color brown. Today certainly destroyed THAT perception. I arrived in Austin and at times I swear I…

New Hampshire – Bringing the Rocky Mountains just a little bit closer to home

A Wintry Wonderland in Jackson, New Hampshire (snow covered trees and creek)

Seriously, a COFFEE place doesn’t open until the late evenings? Lame. So I walked around to do a few geocaching…

You’re In My Town Now

TGi Fridays with Friend
