Family
We live in the hayloft of an old barn with our four kids and rambunctious puppy. Robbi’s dad and Matthew’s mom live on the same street.
Little House on the Tundra
Robbi has traveled to the Alaskan tundra every summer since 1976. I've been going up since 2000. Alden has been ten times so far, Kato eight, and Augie six. Jasper just made his inaugural visit. For all of those years, we have lived with Robbi's family and various...
Alaska 2016: There and Back Again
It's been a while now, so the details are hazy and I feel more emboldened than I otherwise would to add a bunch of extra adjectives. As we do every summer, we packed coolers full of vegetables, drove to the airport, and took our questionable talents to Alaska. Were we...

Book-Making Workshop on Kent Island

Blame the Mascots
Friends, it is that time of year again. The brackets are out. 68 teams across the land are ready to go dancing. Please join Robbi and me in the annual festival of hapless conjecture. By now you know the drill. Follow this link to join our group and either reactivate...
