Today is the day my sister and father died. I saw a golden eagle on my walk today.
When I was little my mother told me I was an eagle and my sister was a dove.
While walking, I carried a heavy stone representing the pain I’ve held onto. When I saw the eagle, I put the stone down.

We’re a small press.
A micro press.
A “runs on caffeine and righteous anger” press.
Small Business Saturday is basically our Olympics.
Stay tuned.

My dog Olive on her 7th birthday. A pic of her as a puppy and a llama on the wall AND an actual llama outside that she barked at when I fed it an overripe banana.
Making the best out of the curves in the road.

Listening to two old guys talk about their wives and food…”I love chili but Kathy doesn’t. She can’t do beans.”
I wonder what else Kathy can’t do…

My great grandmother’s grave in Lakeview Cemetery, Seattle. She left behind four children, her only daughter was my grandmother. I gave her 4 sunflowers to remember them.
Our stories start somewhere. Mine started here, before I was born. I have been its witness. Now it’s my turn to choose.
