Go do the thing. Then write it down.
Sailing, paddleboarding, climbing, fitness, fatherhood, and the photos and writing that come out of it.
Adventures
The list changes as the hobbies change. That is the point of the place.
Sailing
Learning the boat, the wind, and how much I still don't know.
Paddleboarding
Flat water, early mornings, and the boys learning to balance.
Diving
Open water certified in a Dallas quarry, of all places.
Rock Climbing
Indoor walls, outdoor rock, and the problem I still can't finish.
Fitness
Staying strong enough to keep doing all of the above.
Photography
The craft, the business, and where it meets everything else.
Videography
Learning to tell the same stories at 24 frames a second.
Parenting
Two boys, and getting them outside with me.
Travel
Where the adventures happen, and what came home with us.
