I'm back to a point where I feel I can post regularly on this site. I was in Iraq from July 2009 to July 2010. You can read about my experiences there at:

Then moved from the DC area to Tehachapi, CA. I've enjoyed my past year here, have been busy with work and until lately, just hadn't felt much like reading and posting. But I feel like I'm back in the groove a bit. I've read a couple good books of late, "Travels in Siberia" by Ian Frazier and "Moneyball" by Michael Lewis.
I've also been traveling pretty heavy. Albuquerque, NM; Fort Worth, TX; Dayton OH; Atlanta, GA; Huntsville, AL. I've been fortunate to do some exploring of Central and Southern California as well. There are many scenic roads and places to enjoy here.
In reality, in addition to all the above excuses, the ease of posting a thought or two to Facebook, has sapped some of the motivation to keep blogging. But I hope to give it ago.
Rock on world!
