There are a multitude of accounts on Instagram which advertise cheap homes. You can even further narrow that list down to accounts which show cheap foreign homes. I mean, foreign in an American sense. I suppose to the people which live in those countries they are local. Anyways, I happen to follow an account called @yourcheapdreamhome. … Continue reading The Dream

Lincoln
I recently visited Washington D.C. for the first time. It is incredible, with history everywhere you look. I viewed the Founding Documents; the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, and the Constitution. I saw the Capital, the White House, Union Station, and the magnificence of the Washington Monument. None of that compared to the Lincoln Memorial. … Continue reading Lincoln
Adventure Time!
So we are sitting in Terminal 6 of Los Angeles International Airport, waiting for a delayed flight to Baltimore, Maryland. This is the first trip we have taken without our son since he was born, and we are both having a little bit of trouble with it. We do fine, right up until the moment … Continue reading Adventure Time!

Excitement doesn't even begin to describe it. Just about the only part I'm not excited for is the … Continue reading On The Road…Part 1
Fear & Loathing in Brussels
It has happened again; four months after the attacks in Paris, three years after Boston, 11 years after London, almost 15 after New York, in a peaceful little country called Brussels, the hateful face of humanity has peered back at us. We have been attacked in the peaceful moments of our day: going to work, … Continue reading Fear & Loathing in Brussels
Portland
As I mentioned on Sunday I just returned from Portland, Oregon. If you have never been, I cannot recommend the city enough. I have been to Seattle, and to San Francisco, and to Los Angeles and San Diego. Portland easily tops all of those. It is up on the list of favorite cities with New … Continue reading Portland

On Sunday I posted about our digital footprint and how we should protect our information (Do You Know Where Your Data Is?). On Monday, a Federal magistrate handed down a verdict that Apple Inc. must create software that will allow the FBI access to a cell phone belonging to the San Bernardino shooter. Apple's CEO, Tim … Continue reading Trip Planning
