Chennai: Day Two. India always smells like its a little bit on fire. Despite that it takes almost no time for me to feel comfortable and grounded here. A nice brief yoga and meditation this morning was exactly what we needed. Back in our room I decide to test the limits of our electrical converter … More Nice to Meet You
On Indian soil. Our first day begins at the Chennai airport. As we wait in line to exchange dollars for rupees we’re chatted up by an Indian man behind us. He wants to know if we’re here to do yoga. Indeed we are and so is he. Different tour. We ask if he’s from here … More From Cheers to Chennai
Third and final day in merry old England. Our entire focus today was the changing of the guard. We had just one thing to do. We had to be there no later than 11 am. We were up and out in plenty of time, even with confirming our flights and checking in online. Creatures of … More High winds
London, Day Two: It seems Londoners are so accustomed to the rain that more than half of them do not carry umbrellas. But, the rain boots are fabulous!

Oviedo, FL: On a dirt road near my home there are five acre plots of land, each with one home. These are not ginormous new money monuments to consumerism homes. These are off the grid within the city limits style homes. Big vegetable gardens, a couple of goats or cows, unmanicured, natural lawns. Old Florida. … More Magical Entry
I love all animals. I even love insects and arachnids. I don’t love to cuddle with all of them or even get close enough to touch them, but I have an appreciation and affinity for all creatures.
