Tonight I sat on my back deck doing some reading for work and our neighbor began to mow his backyard. Because of my distance and activity, and the dimming evening light, I was actually able to watch his movements rather openly without it appearing that...

When To Move Out Of The House
I had a moment of revelation and apparently feel the need to share it online. When should we, as homeowners, realize when it’s time to sell our single family houses and move into duplexes, townhomes or apartments due to our age? We’ve been looking for...

I like film photography but lately I’ve felt like a huge hypocrite because I’ve been taking almost exclusively digital photos. Today I got an email from Polaroid (formerly The Impossible Project) advertising the return of Duochrome film in yellow and black. I got the email...
