September 26, 2010

See the cutie with the dimples, that would be my little brother Blaine. That is, if  I’m still allowed to call a 6’2″, 200 plus lb lacrosse player little. Yeah, I am. He may be nearly a foot taller than me but he will always be that little towhead who was zooming around the driveway […]

Stormy Days

September 16, 2010

Some of my favorite moments would be stormy days along our coast. The skies begin to subtly turn a moody shade of gray.
