Puddle Jumping
Reagan’s sister is in town this weekend, visiting some friends. Since we aren’t able to see our little Atlanta based nieces nearly as much as we would like to, Reagan’s sister offered to bring them along so that Reagan and I could hang out with them this weekend. They have been incredible sports about the…

Cool Street Art o’ the week
It’s all about perspective. To me, this piece is absolutely amazing. I almost wish that there were an aerial shot, for contrast. The artist is Rub Home Kandy. This photo comes by way of Unurth.

La Musica Coolica #45 (CS)
Common Sense is one of those few rappers from the midwest, who was able to make it big. He hails from Chi-town, and was born “Lonnie Rashid Lynn, Jr.” He got his start in the early 90’s known mostly by the underground hip-hop crowd. He has done quite a bit of experimentation with his sound,…

More photo-fun
Occasionally, Reagan and her friends get together and trade stuff that they have cleaned out of their closets, then donate what’s left over. Reagan brought back the little gem pictured above, from the most recent of these little get-togethers, that took place earlier this week. It is a Kodak Hawk-Eye, patented in 1916. Reagan brought…

La Musica Coolica #44 (BG)
First of all, only one of the Brazilian Girls, is actually a girl. She is the lead singer, Sabina Sciubba, and she is not Brazilian. Fantastic name for a group, nonetheless. As it turns out, Brazilian is about the only thing that Sciubba, is not. Hahahaha. She grew up in Munich and Nice. In addition…

Weekend Generally
Reagan’s friend from high school, Lacy, and her husband, Alex, were in town this weekend for work. So we were able to hang out with them pretty much the whole time that we weren’t in CT. It was fun to see them. Last time I saw Lacy she was pregnant with their little guy, Noah.…
