I am SO jealous. When I met the Chilean dynamo Evelyn, the better half of the upcoming Patagonia Workshops, I didn’t know she kept notebooks. Nope, had no idea. I was doing what I do, which is talk shit about …
Creative: We Got Off Easy
Yes, this post is about a book, but it’s coming under the “Creative” title for a reason. I don’t remember mentioning a book halfway through the reading of it, but I’m doing so now, and I’m doing it for good …
Adventure: The Vaer Continues
It still works. That is all. Okay, there is a bit more. You know my history with watches. If you don’t, just know it’s not good. Decades of premature death and destruction. This dates back to middle school and my …

Adventure: The Return

Creative: Fujifilm at B&H
