Upcoming vacation in Scottsdale, Arizona
Cena and I decided we needed a real vacation. Not one of those trips where one of us had to work and the other got to tag along – a real vacation. So to skip the hassles of swapping my timeshare with Sunterra we just booked a stay at my home resort (which i have …
MC Farland
Tonight i am MCing a retirement party. I wondered if i was asked to do it because my last name starts with MC. Cena said it was because i’m witty, charming, and nice to look at. So i asked. Kathy said that she couldn’t say i was those things or it would be sexual harassment. …

Blogger’s Choice nomination
Thank you Erika for the nomination for Best Geek Blog, Best Blog About Stuff, and Best Photography Blog in the Blogger’s Choice Awards. While i am flattered by the nominations i’m sure not expecting an invitation to the award ceremony in November. It is a neat place to peruse for new reading material though.
Happy solstice
Well the days of increasing daylight are coming to an end and we’re beginning the backward slide into winter officially. You don’t have to be a druid to celebrate seasonal changes like solstice or equinox. I love the equinox because that one day everyplace on the planet has the same amount of sunlight – it …
Skagway Air
We had just enough time for me to lead us on a wild goose chase through the streets of Skagway before hopping on our Piper flight on Skagway Air. Sadly they are shutting down on July 1st. We had a great flight. For $100 each we had a great return flight to Juneau.
White Pass Yukon Route
We stomped around Skagway for a little bit dodging the passengers of the four cruise ships docked and then grabbed a bite to eat before loading onto the train. We took the White Pass Yukon Route summit excursion for $98 a person. The trip was about three hours. My photos on the train were not …
MV Fairweather
On Tuesday we got up early and drove our Ford Taurus rental car to the Juneau ferry terminal from the Extended Stay (formerly the Aspen). We checked in and stood in the sun while waiting to board the fast ferry Fairweather. Once on board we snagged starboard seats near the bow for the view of …
Wednesday again
New computer today so expect a bit more time spent on here. I have a few web projects that need time so I’m sure to need the distractions.

New laptop
I have been using a Sony laptop for my DJing and web design projects for a few years now. It has been frustrating me for quite a while though. The fan on it runs constantly and it overheats. It is so loud that it overpowers the rest of the sounds around me. So even though …
