I spent this past Saturday night, sitting in my cousins’ backyard, alongside my girlfriend and my brother, as we awaited an outdoor viewing of The Princess Bride. We had a fire going in their fire pit, ready to await our collection of marshmallows, chocolate squares, and graham crackers. Yep, it was S’Mores Time. I seriously […]

Sorry for the lack of blogs this week. I spent the week settling in San Diego where I’ll be for the next few weeks in between speaking engagements as I escape the AZ sun. Regular blogs will be back from me next week. In the meantime, revisit the Summer School entries if you haven’t yet. […]
