Thanks to all who contributed to the magazine discussion. There were some well-written and thought-provoking comments on both sides, which were fun to read. I hope to write more topical posts like those in the future. This weekend was as low key as it was fantastic, which is to say it was equal parts of […]

This picture only begins to showcase the epic adventure I’ve had over the past five days. Last week, Jill and I embarked on a life changing trip to Miami. The reason?
