Heading West...

I’m prickly.

Heading out west is the best. If you ever want to get lost in a foreign place, go to the desert in California. Or even in the coastal towns on the Pacific. As a kid, I always wanted to go out west, so my Dad took myself and my older brother out to California. Such an awesome road trip where I got crushed beneath the giant crashing waves.

A few years later, we all road-tripped as a family and hit up California again. We got to see the stars on the walk of fame in Hollywood and put our hands in the imprints of the famous people who came before us. It was all so fun and memorable.

Last year, when my wife was 6 months pregnant, we went to San Diego and then checked out the classic Hollywood feel of Palm Springs. We did a few day hikes in Joshua Tree Park, and it felt great to wander around and get lost.

Time and time again, something keeps bringing me back to the West Coast. There is so much to do out there and explore. I don’t think I will ever move out there, but to be able to get lost in such a different world is amazing. I have a fond appreciation to the chill vibes out there and the numerous National parks to keep me occupied. If you haven’t gone out west yet, definitely give it a try. If you want a travel partner, let me know. I want to go back again soon.

P.S. Wander and get lost anywhere you go. It is fun to just be someplace without an agenda.

Cheers to the Weekend

Sipping

something sweet.

Under blue clear skies

and dirt beneath my feet.

Nothing to worry about

Just libations and relaxations,

for today and our futures selfs due to

the sacrifices they made,

to keep us safe.

Families and friends ,

together forever,

until this 3 day weekend

finally ends.

This weekend is one of my favorite weekends to enjoy with family and friends!

To celebrate and eat until my stomachs content. I feel like I am Templeton from “Charlotte’s Web” eating all the leftover food from the carnival and overindulging on all the sweets and junk food.

It’s the official start of summer here In Buffalo, NY, when Memorial weekend is here. The beaches are open and kind of warm. Sunshine is normally here to stay (except for today). No more snow until Christmas is on its way.

None of this would be possible if it wasn’t for all the military members past and present who have kept us safe. They paid the ultimate sacrifice dying for our freedom throughout all these years. Let’s never forget that.

Take a minute this weekend to reflect and thank all those who paid the ultimate sacrifice. Without them, we would be nothing and would not be enjoying our ice-cold brews, smoky bbq ribs, and steam clams on the grill.

Peace ,

P.S. Eat all the meats,

Drink all the drinks

Love all your friends and family.
