Who knew a digital camera would make such a difference in how and what I take pictures of. I'm rarely without my camera these days, much to thank to this outlet of expression. Not since my college radio show have I had so much fun being creative. In many ways this blog is a kin to my radio show. What I write here is the same banter that would go out on the airwaves, instead of music I have pictures to accompany my meaningless rambles and comments substitute for call in requests.
I did some pretty cool stuff this year and Chicago never ceases to amaze me. In February I committed myself to bicycle commuting every day and stopped making excuses for using public transit. By my first snow filled commute I was hooked.
I then realized a dream of mine since I began traveling in life post college. I freakin went to Australia and New Zealand and what a ride it was. The best mountain biking I've ever done was out there and I hit the local trails all the more this season because of it.
The Homer-Hopper exhibit came to town and I think the entire Midwest came with it. By far the most crowded exhibit I've been to and the best in regards to artworks.
Summer was filled with weddings and baseball and Tour de Fat. The pinnacle had to be the century ride that I shared with the best friends around.
It was a slow Autumn for climbing but still managed to progress my skills. I hit the single track hard though and finally learned the Palos trail network.

Some gazebo action and a ton of commuting bring us all up to date.
The Podcast was great so look for more to come I'm working on one more now and how 'bout some Midwest ski hills too. Stay tuned its all out here you just have to look a little harder.
