January 17, 2016 by Steve 3 Comments

This Is It: The Enders Enders Island, Mystic May 16, 2015 Every once in a while I'm tasked with writing a page that I find difficult to write for reasons that may surprise you.

Jesus Christ, That Must've Hurt! Holy Land USA, Waterbury November 19, 2004 Note: This is a poorly edited piece from my old blog - where the trip to Holy Land USA was merely a tiny part of a larger week-long roadtrip where we picked off PA, MD, WV, and DC highpoints, so it's written sort of … [Read more...]
