#12: Visit an American City we’ve never been to. Chattanooga, TN. Would have loved to explored the caves and more of the Civil War sites. Tennessee is beautiful country.
To the gramps I never knew. (Bottom, 2nd from left)
I enjoyed the authentic look that brought back recent memories of our Cuba trip, but the story was subpar.
Brit has moved into her first post collegiate apartment. We’re officially empty nesters.
#95 Done: New Dining Room Table. May need to put chairs on next years list.
#55: Stay at the Chateau Marmont
#42: Lounge By 5 Hotel Pools. Not a warm day, but the pool at the Chateau Marmont has that old school vibe.
We have a lot of anniversaries, but this is the one we celebrate. 20 years and counting.

Tried this edit-to-go low carb meal program. The sacrifice of taste for a few pounds lost wasn’t really worth it.
It’s time to acknowledge a few goals that will definitely fall. #16 Open Up the Kitchen (See #18) #17 Remodel Master Bathroom (See #18) #20 Go to a Wrigley Game (Ran out of time) #30 Go to a Baseball Stadium I’ve Never Been To (Same as above) #83 Remove a Tattoo (Company went bankrupt) #85 Remove fire place in den (See #18) #91 Host…
Loved it.
Sonia did her best to represent the Cubs, but the Dodgers ultimately won with a walk off homer.
IMG_8339 from henry james on Vimeo. Three of Brit’s favorite bands playing together. Good excuse for a daddy daughter date.
Tied up a few loose ends from the previous two novels. A quick enjoyable read.
Another good read.
IMG_6948 from henry james on Vimeo. I really loved Tom Petty. His music was always apart of my life’s soundtrack. He made the Valley and L.A. his own. This was his band’s 40th anniversary and I embraced it. I took the kids to see him in Pasadena. And I used his concert in London to commit my Dad and Georgeanne to a vacation in…
A worthy sophomore effort. I’ll read the next.
Betrayed by the good reviews. If only I could have interrupted the license plate on the cover I would’ve never started it.
I was grateful to be able to support my friend and celebrate his mom’s life that was certainly a life well lived. Her passing leaves this blog’s readership significantly dented. Noreen was a subscriber from the beginning, and as such, knew much more about me than I knew of her. Her husband’s remembrance of her at the memorial was wonderful and enlightening. Noreen and…
#37: Watch a sunrise Took advantage of the redeye and walked around the National Man before sunrise.
Might be the best yet.
Brittany dragged us to IT. It was shit.
I really hope Irma doesn’t wipe one of my favorite places off of the map. Princeville, Kauai, New Orleans, Gustavus, Alaska, Florence, Italy and Key West feel more like home than my actual home of nearly 38 years. The caretaker of Hemingway’s home and fifty descendants of his six toe cats are going to try to ride this out, but it doesn’t look good….
I think I could’ve fit in.
#78: Five rooftop toasts Supperclub at the Filifera in Hollywood.
I write this with Bella purring on my lap, so it’s much easier to write good bye. She’s eighteen and has been telling us for probably more than a year that she’s ready to go. Bella was on death’s door a couple of years ago, but I found a company that developed a custom diet that improved her condition for about a year until…
