Arte, Illusions, and Steaks…

I’ve been back in Massachusetts for a couple of days now, having missed some wild weather (including a few tornado touchdowns!) as we begin to transition from Summer to Fall – but the mornings have had a delightful chill to them, and the storefronts are starting to display more and more pumpkins and mums – […]

Labor Day in Las Vegas…

It’s kind of wild, but mostly funny to think about my trips to Las Vegas throughout my early twenties – where the only places I’d ever frequent regularly were the Strip or Fremont Street regardless of the size of the crowds or the length of the lines that developed depending on the occasion/event, or holiday.

Thankful and Blessed…

Although Thanksgiving isn’t until next week, I’ve been spending a lot of time over these past few days doing some reflection and meditating on my life in 2024 through now – the big changes, accomplishments, ups and downs and, most importantly – the people who have been with me and by my side throughout it […]
