Falling Forward
Weather in the Upper Midwest is always unusual. This year we enjoyed a particularly mild summer, followed by a somewhat intense Indian Summer but then it jumped straight to snow, like a record skipping a groove. Last week my son and I took our annual trek to Duluth, MN for his October school break. We left prepared for anything, with clothing to layer according to the temperatures. Our walks along the shores of Lake Superior were brisk, yes, but not uncomfortably so. And we encountered some simply stunning Fall leaves.

Stoking the Wanderlust
Like a lot of people I love to travel, but have limited resources. Last weekend I finally ventured back to Los Angeles, for the first time in eleven years. In 1998 I’d gone to see the Bauhaus reunion show, at the Hollywood Palladium. This trip wasn’t so much about a specific event, but rather just the need for a change of scenery. Many more photos from the weekend on flickr here.
