It is 10:05 AM on Monday, March 10th. Daylight savings occurred yesterday so the time is later than it feels. It is a workday but since I’m on the West Coast team I have plenty of free time in the morning before work picks up. I’ve taken my steam shower and am now at Stauf’s…… Continue reading 2025 – Ohio Visit Post Three
Raymond Memorial Golf Course – Memorial Post
It is 9:31 AM on March 9th, 2025. I’m sitting at Stauf’s Cafe on Grandview Avenue listening to the sound of the robins in the trees and trying to ignore the sound of the cars. I’ve been meaning to write this memorial post for some time and now that I’m briefly in my hometown and…… Continue reading Raymond Memorial Golf Course – Memorial Post
Journal Entry – Ohio
After my business meetings in Florida I took the opportunity to stop back home in Ohio and arrived yesterday evening. The weather here being around 30 degrees certainly isn’t that of California or Florida which came as a shock. It felt as though I was stepping back in time to Christmas when we were here…… Continue reading Journal Entry – Ohio
Journal Entry – On the Road
I’m sitting in Terminal A at Orlando Airport and have two hours before boarding. Travel is always such a surreal experience for me but as I’ve aged I’ve noticed there isn’t much excitement for it.

It is 7:13 PM on Thursday, March 6th, 2025. I find myself in Lake Mary, Florida on a business trip sitting on my bed in a random hotel room.

2025 – The Holidays are Over
It is 8:06 AM on January 6th, 2025. The holidays are officially in the rearview mirror and everyone is back to work. This is the saddest day of the year for many. As I explained to my son, if the holidays didn’t end then we couldn’t look forward to other things throughout the year, nor…… Continue reading 2025 – The Holidays are Over
End of Holiday Season – 2024
It is 8:15 AM on Friday, January 3rd 2025. The morning is gray with a slight drizzle and ample fog which precedes heavy rainfall later this morning. The day after Christmas, most of the nation was in a sort of “work Purgatory,” with only a small reprieve on New Year’s Day which fell on Wednesday.…… Continue reading End of Holiday Season – 2024
