What’s on the iPod: Moment of Surrender by U2 Closed. Can’t walk here. Can’t park here. Can’t do anything but keep driving on by. Because it’s a national historic park, Valley Forge is officially closed, and the rangers are making sure people stay off the trails and out of harm’s way. It’s rather unprecedented to…

Weekend Warrior
What’s on the iPod: Bohéme by We Invented Paris I’m getting a late start blogging this morning. It was one of those weekends that had me glad to see Monday come just for the rest. I started Saturday thinking I’d spend an hour finding a home for the stacks of books I received from his…

Memories at the End of Summer
What’s on the iPod: I Will Wait by Mumford and Sons I can’t believe today is the first day of fall. I didn’t get to the shore this summer (not surprising given my surgery in May), nor did I spend enough time in the garden. And yet, the summer was lovely. The garden bloomed without…

Market Like You Mean It
What’s on the iPod: Bright Lanterns by The Tallest Man on Earth Don’t you love when a project seems to fall into place? One I’m working on this week is doing just that. It’s a complex topic, but the people I’m interviewing and the huge amount of resources readily available is making it easy to…
On Weekends, Working Sick, and Memories
What’s on the iPod: Missy by The Airborne Toxic Event Monday’s hitting hard. Sometime on Thursday, I felt it coming — scratchy throat, stuffiness building. Friday, it showed up. Sick. Damn. It put a huge damper on my productivity, but I pushed through with the help of the right medicines. Thank goodness I’m married to…
