It's nearing the end of the year and I was thinking of the past year and needed to get thoughts out of my head. Overall, I feel largely unaccomplished with the last year. No, I'm not sad or disappointed. Just hoping that it can help spur greater completion in the next year. So here are some wins and losses

Wins: completion of a LARGE work...

One of the nice things about where I work is that it involves occasional work trips to our parent organization in Vegas. Last time I saw three Cirque du Soleil shows and a body building competition. I have another trip in a couple weeks, and I'm looking at a show called Awakening at the Wynn, "the seance show" at Lost Spirits Distillery, and a Golden...

I'm not really one for goals, mostly because my life has been plagued with constant last minute change, but I'm close to the end of one. At the same time, I'm still sooooo far off from the end and there is nothing that can be done to speed it up. Honestly, I think the only things keeping me going are security in life now and...

Goal setting is an important thing in life. It reflects your basic aspirations, such as security and confidence. You know better than anyone what you need to do to stay safe and confident. And you do it sometimes unconsciously.

What do other solo adventurers do for their birthdays?

I started by buying a few new tools, working on my fence, and a small project for my office. Drinks, pizza, fuzzy blankets, and Disney+ are currently my only other plans.

Suggestions welcome but options are limited in my area.

@shenzy @kiley @sdawg74  Thanks friends! I'm in the middle of Louisiana... 3hrs to Houston, 4hrs to New Orleans, and 5hrs to Dallas. I haven't been to a concert in years, and I'd love to go to an edm fest of some kind in the future.

Story time: I just spent the week in Miami for work. While looking for things to do in my downtime, I found a photography meetup that was doing a beach shoot and signed up for it. I show up at the beach and there are a handful of photographers and A TON of models! Apparently it was part of a week long beauty pageant. I...

😎, Miami is like that.  On my last trip there was a bikini photo shoot at the hotel I was staying at & the place I’d staked out for my cigars was right above the fountain which turned out to be a very popular spot for shoots. 😳🥵

I've been in my house for just over a year now. It's my first house and it needed a little more TLC than expected. The first two projects last summer were new gutters and new sliding door. This summer, it's redoing the fence. I started tearing out the old fence today... in 98F/37C 🥵🥵🥵 As I worked to remove this section, I figured someone a...

The whole fence is out now, I kind of like the open feel. The first section needed 4 of 7 posts reset. I have 2 of those straightened and am waiting for concrete to set some more. I hope to have the other 2 set in the next day or two and wood up by Sunday or Monday

We need to catch up! How about taking a ride on the Pan-American Highway? It seems to me very beautiful to observe how climatic zones change, and with them the landscape. Few people have ever ridden this road on SG. A great blog will turn out!  Any more suggestions?

That ride is one of the first things  doing when I hit my soft retirement in 5yrs. I'm thinking somewhere tropical or maybe a cruise. I've never been on a cruise or in the southern hemisphere yet, just a fair amount of Europe and some SE Asia

One of those days where it feels like the snowball is starting to turn into an avalanche. If you're there or have been there, I understand and have a digital (real if you're actually nearby) hug for you. We'll get through whatever is getting at us.

I have 3 days left out here in Vegas, probably more like 2 days because Sunday will be a lot of work. So far I've seen Cirque du Soleil Ka, Mystere, and O. Looking for suggestions on any other shows as I'm not super into gambling. I'm thinking a burlesque show or two (if only Blackheart Burlesque was going 😥)
