  • Summit to Sea: What We’ll Be Making

    The Summit to Sea project has now been fundraising for just over a week, and we’ve made good progress. As of this morning, we’re 6% of the way toward our goal. With about 34 days remaining before our February 29th deadline, we’ve clearly got a lot to go yet! Let me give a big “thank…

  • On the Calendar for 2012

    I’ve just received some really great news this afternoon! I just found out that I was accepted to the 2012 group for the Pacific Northwest Photography Viewing Drawers at the Blue Sky Gallery in Portland, Oregon. What that means is that I was selected as one of a group of photographers from the greater Northwest…

  • Summit to Sea Fundraising Has Begun!

    Yesterday our bank verification came through, so Lorie and I were able to hit the big green “Launch” button for our Kickstarter campaign! The Summit to Sea project is officially raising funds now, and as you can see, we’ve already had few donations in first 24 hours of the campaign. Thanks, backers Now that the…

  • Interviewed! …About Litter

    So, with all this talk around here of launching a Kickstarter campaign on Sunday (that is, yesterday), how is it going so far? If you’ve tried to find it, you’ve no doubt been unsuccessful, and that’s entirely our fault. You see, the very last step in the process turns out to be a bank account…

    Looking Ahead to the Summer

    I’ve been a busy video editor these past couple of days, working on trimming various accumulated footage into a pitch video for our upcoming Kickstarter campaign, titled “Summit to Sea”, which will launch this Sunday. As I’ve mentioned, Lorie and I are planning on kayaking from my childhood home in Stevensville, MT, all the way…

    Codename Porkchop

    January is usually the time of year when we find the web and various other media inundated with a variety of either “Best of 2011” lists, or resolutions for 2012. I don’t think I’ll really worry about crafting this first post of 2012 to match either of those themes, but I won’t go so far…

  • December Slump

    December Slump

    I feel like I’ve been incredibly unproductive this month, and I can’t nail down the cause of it. My immediate suspect is all of the travel. Our last several days in Renkum were spent getting ready to hit the road again, and our time in London was too short to really take on a project.…

  • Return to Montana

    Return to Montana

    Yesterday, Lorie and I started our day stepping out of the hostel onto the dark, quiet streets of Amsterdam where a light rain was falling as we made our way to the train station. Exactly 24 hours later, we returned to Montana, where a light snow was falling as we drove from the airport. It…

  • Checking In From Amsterdam

    Checking In From Amsterdam

    Well, I did a terrible job at updating the website from London, but I will try to give you a bit of a travel update from here in Amsterdam, while the laptop has power and internet, since those things will be a little harder to come by tomorrow as Lorie and I fly back to…

    Cross Posted from the 101 in 1001 Days Project:  100 Day Check-in

    In just a matter of hours, Lorie and I will be leaving the house here in Renkum, bound for Amsterdam, and then London. One week from today, by this time, we’ll be somewhere over the Atlantic, home bound for the United States, and then Montana. I’ll try to post from London, before then, if I…
