Portillo’s Shipped Us Dogs

George and I fell asleep watching Game of Thrones and paid the price.

That Time George Threw His Sister And Niece into the Ocean

#22: Stand Up Paddle Board Went out on the choppy bay with Devin and George, but still managed to stand up… For a second or two.

Chasing Fish at Hanauma Bay

#37 Done

Sorry, Pa

Fun in the Sun

Pill Box Hike

  Challenging hike. Proud of my dad.

First Night Fun

Sorry for the gore, but…

With 15 minutes of being here, Sean cut his finger deep enough to change the course of his vacation. Feeling somewhat responsible for the injury, Kaden waited here while his dad was at the ER.

Happy 70th, Pa!

Look forward to a week long celebration worthy of your longevity.

All before 8am

Had dinner at the hot Hawaiian joint, Mud Hen Water. Meh. Drinks were good though.

A two night hang in Honolulu before we begin to celebrate the Pa’s 70th.

I can blow spit balls at the back of her head for the next five hours.

Took a couple of episodes, but then I got hooked and binged watched two seasons.

Happy Birthday, Mamacita

Happy Father’s Day

Good to be a son and a father today.

Supper club in Malibu.  

“Training” with my daughter. Too fast for pictures.

With such a busy week ahead of us, it’s only natural that Rio had to go mess up her eye and require our undivided attention.

J Lo

​​ Once I put the earplugs in it was a surprisingly good show.

Best Paella in the Land

Post workout lunch. I never thought I’d say workout and Vegas, but we continue to surprise ourselves.

Beating the Heat

Pit Stop At The Lake House

Freshly caught fish for lunch. 

#84 Done

#84: Go to at least 3 work shows We finally got picked up by a popular showroom. It solves our issues in one region, but our backs remain against the wall. Atlanta proved to be dead on arrival, so we are pulling out. Hopefully we’ll be back in a showroom by August. Or maybe Basically Me rides off into the sunset. Place your bets.

Up in the air

This salt shaker is ready for take off. I wonder how long it will take Alaskan Airlnes to kill the awesomeness of Virgin.

Zac Brown Band at the Forum

Always a great show.

Meet Me In Paris, a quaint French restaurant that didn’t disappoint.  

#19 in Progress

#19: Read 10 new books Speaking of favorites, Jim Harrison is right up there with Hemingway for me, and finishing his ode to food was a perfect way to spend the day.

RIP Ali

Brittany’s end of the year meeting with her coach went well for all of us. Full scholarship her senior year! Whoop, whoop.

Blew up a pic I took in Africa for the living room. Tennis Court Zebras.

Joined a Supper Club. Tonight was a rare champagne pairing dinner with electric harp entertainment. The champagne was worth the price of admission.

Just finished season three of Peaky Blinders on Netflix. So good. It is truly the golden age of television. The Sopranos took on film and it has been a blood bath ever since. Here are twenty TV shows in no particular order that have aired in the last few years that I believe to be better than 99.9% of the movies released on the big…

See ya desert.

Mom’s trying to out flex her daughter.

First tennis, now bocce ball. I’m finding new ways to humble my daughter.

#42 Done

  #42: Lounge by 5 hotel pools. This is what it looks like hanging with a college student.

La Quinta Nights

Stress Be Gone

Palm Springs has a way of doing that.

Another Napa shipment just in time for National Wine Day.
