The Good Life

Spring has finally arrived and given way to summer. The ice is gone, temperatures are on the rise, and the sun has been brave enough to show itself on occasion. The quiet stillness of the early morning is often shattered with the roaring whine of an aircraft departing the bay or the airstrip.  This brief interruption of solitude is brought courtesy of yours truly, unleashing 300 ear shattering horses on the pristine Alaskan wilderness.

Big Green Tractor

This is simply just a cool old tractor at my Uncle's place in Kansas.

Old School

On our recent visit to Kansas, I got to see this antique desk that belonged to my great-great-grandfather. It is approximately 100 years old. My great-great grandfather apparently dealt in real estate, and I imagine this would have been the desk he would have used to write out contracts and real estate deals. Many thanks to my uncle, who showed this piece of our family history to me.
