I don’t live in Park City anymore, but that doesn’t mean it’s not the best ski or mountain vacation in the world. When I moved there I was struck by the lack of a good local guide to nightlife and restaurants (sorry, Park Record/Flipside, you suck). I dabbled with making one but decided [...]
I haven’t posted in a while. Oh well.
I made a connection that seemed profound as I was falling asleep last night and thinking about how fortunate I am.
Don’t stare at the rocks.
This was the first useful piece of advice I received when I was learning to mountain bike. It works like [...]
I’m in Italy, and it kicks ass. I came here with my parents and spent 3 nights in Florence and then moved to Venice. So I’ve gotten all the tours that cost money and good food and stuff. Lots of good food. And Chianti. Tomorrow I head back to Florence [...]

Last weekend I and one of the kids from the last June trip co-led another ski trip to June Mountain. It was even better than the last, and we stayed 2 days. [...]
I thought this page was a lot more exciting when there was a new set of cool camping pictures on it every week. Unfortunately I couldn’t keep that up, but I did just get some pictures from the Hearst Castle trip I did like three weeks ago. I think I took like one [...]
