Some Memorabilia From A Life In Progress
Like most of you, I’ve collected a few souvenirs from this life adventure. The accents of the good, bad, ugly and too much fun. I try to store them appropriately, but I’m a guy. And, worse yet, I’m me. So, my most well-meaning attempts at storage are often fraught with fraughtness. I finally captured these mementos on film…so much easier to document and share. They’re in no order. April Fools seems like a great time to resurrect some memories and highlights. ENJOY!
