Music
I’ve been listening to Norah Jones’s podcast, “Norah Jones Playing Along,” that she started not long after COVID shut everything down, and continued for 33 episodes until she and Sarah Oda announced the “last one” – at least for now while she is embarking on her first Norah Jones tour since 2020.

Well, I can tell you it was for good reason, since we embarked on our annual “Family Retreat” for the 4th year in a row on Wednesday (…but that is another story). The big news Continue reading

Dream & Inspire
We recently went on an epic tandem cycling adventure road trip to celebrate 35 years of marriage. During the drive time, we listened to several episodes of Bike Life podcast (link: https://www.podpage.com/bike-life/). In the episode, “Embracing the Unknown,” Dan Schmitt was sharing how he had spent 25 years dreaming of making a cross country bikepacking Continue reading
About Me
Thinking about the line from Karen Carpenter’s song, “…don’t worry that it’s not good enough for anyone else to hear…” I have been inspired to “just sing” (and write, and share).
I produced a weekly blog for a little over a year, but now I’m committed to one article a month. I hope to give a little inspiration to those passing by, either through my blog articles or within the other pages I’ve created here.
