A few weeks ago, I told you that the Thai kids found me to be a complete panty waste laid back (you can read about it here). Many of you have asked through emails and covert comments to my wife about how my classes are going. After two weeks more of teaching, I am happy … Continue reading
On Friday I found myself walking home in an all out monsoon. I’m talking sheets of rain buffeting down. It didn’t just seem like rain, it looked as if springs were erupting from the ground. Within five minutes, the area around me, that had previously been completely dry, resembled something more akin to a lake … Continue reading
Quote from Following After Trek: “Peyton nodded and started skipping toward the kitchen. Very rarely did Peyton simply walk or mosey. The child had boundless energy and moved from place to place by leaping or skipping or doing somersaults. It was no mystery why he looked like Daniel Craig emerging from the ocean in a … Continue reading

Four sets of eyes looked up at me expecting me to deliver. I was down to 11,000 Yen in my wallet and while that may sound like a fortune, it certainly isn’t enough money to take with you to Edo Wonderland, the ninja theme park in Japan. The trip to this point has been an … Continue reading
The post-woman working the counter at the Lahaina post office informed me that I could save twenty cents per package if I removed the metal clasp from my envelopes before I mailed them.
