2025

Today we ventured into the heart of the city and toured the literal high point of Seoul, the observation deck at Lotte World Tower.

As planned, we returned to the core city this afternoon.

Our diversion to Guam came to a close today.

Today I hired a guide to show me around the interesting parts of the island.

If you’ve read this blog before, you know a post that starts with “So the plan was …” is going to lead somewhere quite different from the plan.

For our first full day in South Korea, we booked a package tour that led us through a few fun adventures in the mountains to the east of Seoul.

It’s been a long day, but my daughter and I are enjoying the start of our adventure in South Korea.

Lisa and I took a long weekend together in nearby Victoria, British Columbia.

Mendocino is my happy place. I know nobody there, need to talk to nobody. I can recharge there.

I had a window seat that gave me some nice sunset views on my flight to San Jose tonight.

I’ve long been curious about the so-called Sunshine Coast area to the northwest of Vancouver, British Columbia.

Earlier this week, we saw somebody wearing a baseball cap advertising Hot Dog Johnny in the charmingly-named town of Buttzville, New Jersey.

We’re mostly hanging out around our hotel and visiting family. Today I will share a few candid photos that we took around our neighborhood.

Lisa and I arrived in New Jersey yesterday morning for a weeklong family visit.

We’ve spent the last couple days of our time in Australia at a lovely resort in Noosa Heads. Most of yesterday was spent on some leisurely hikes around Noosa National Park and today we drove back to Brisbane.

We started this morning with a visit to the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary. Such adorable creatures!

We’re on to Brisbane, our next destination, today. Our flight left in the early afternoon, so we did a bit of extra driving around the channel south of Hobart before driving to the airport.

Now that we’ve rearranged our trip, we’re enjoying one of our bonus days in Tasmania.

Bomb cyclone. Massive winter storm. Hurricane-like winds. Whatever you call it, there’s a big storm headed for Australia’s east coast in the next couple of days.

After a few days of go-go-go we needed a respite. So my daughter took a day to lay low and I took a casual drive around the north part of the island.

I mentioned yesterday that we arrived late in the evening at an AirBNB site that’s on a farm in rural Victoria. We arrived too late to see much of the farm, so they sent a welcoming committee first thing in the morning. (We made very fast friends, as you can see!)

The plan was to get an early start and make our way along the coast to a fun AirBNB located on a farm in rural Victoria.

Hello from Down Under! My daughter and I are starting a grand adventure to explore the east coast of Australia.

Today my team hosted the third Content Authenticity Summit on Roosevelt Island in New York City. I’ve written about the event over on my dev blog. After the event wound down, some of us went to a nearby rooftop lounge to celebrate with a cocktail. We got there just at dusk, which gave me the opportunity to take a few skyline photos.

This morning, we visited my cousin’s farm for breakfast and got to know their pet goats, horses, and chickens. Here’s a little sampling of their animal family.

Today we left the big city and headed up to visit some relatives of mine near the Canadian border in upstate New York.

Ever since I first visited the TWA Hotel and Connie Cocktail Lounge a few years ago, I’ve been scheming how to share this experience with my sweetheart.

After a fun few days at Internet Identity Workshop, it’s time to head home.

Yesterday, I explored the west side of Pinnacles National Park. Today, I made the longer trek to the east side of the park.

I’m staying this weekend near Monterey. I’ve long been curious about Pinnacles National Park, so I ventured out to explore the west side of the park today.

I’m in California to attend a conference in the Bay Area. I came down a few days early to (surprise, surprise) do a bit of exploring.

I’ve been in Utah for the last week, mostly for personal reasons, but got a few fun window-seat photos and driving-around photos that I’d like to share.

Today our company took a company-wide holiday. I happened to be in Salt Lake City, so I decided to go visit Golden Spike National Historical Park, which commemorates the point at which the first transcontinental railroad was completed in 1869.

I’ve written here before that borders fascinate me. Today I explored a tiny exclave of the United States that – for those of us without private planes or boats – is reachable only by driving through the adjacent parts of Canada.
