Thanksgiving-Cyber Monday, my wallet's ignoring Target, Home Depot, & Amazon.

I'm tired of corporations enabling this administration ditching DEI, allowing ICE to terrorize our communities, & chase tax breaks.

Unpopular opinion: Opossums are adorable. They're also awesome animals! We appreciate our visitors.

Local Rivian vehicles are always helping to keep me excited for my future R2. 🙌🏼

This particular R1S has some beefy looking tires with a slightly negative offset (sticking out from the fender).

I had an absolutely amazing time with this family portrait session. These folks were full of energy and so much fun. We couldn't have asked for better weather, with the fall colors complimenting their fantastic wardrobe choices.

I've just surpassed 100mi in September. 😮 That's the most I've ridden since I began participating in the Great Cycle Challenge 4 years ago.

There's still time to sponsor my ride and support the Children's Cancer Research Fund.

Happy to see a Rivian tow vehicle at our small town's local campground. I've seen many on social and in-person at the Charged EV + RV Rally, but I've been casually watching our little campground.
