It's been a minute

 

A lot has happened since I last updated this blog and I fully understand that few people will ever read it again, but hey, it's fun to have posts to look back on. Here's a rundown of the last few years:

👉 I became a grandfather to an amazing little girl named Scarlette.

👉 I took a yearlong sabbatical, bought a sailboat with a plan to sail the Caribbean for a year.

👉 I left the coast of Florida on July 4th 2016 and returned to The States July 4th 2017.

👉 I spent a couple months tending bar in a Mexican cantina on the island of St. Croix. 

👉 I had my entire hip replaced. An old football/wrestling injury turned to arthritis. 

👉 I became a grandfather again to a great little boy named Vinny.

👉 I retired from my teaching job after 27 1/2 years in Indiana in December of 2018.

👉 I moved to Hawaii and started teaching at a Honolulu middle school in January of 2019.

👉 I bought a condo on the west end of Waikiki.

That about brings things up to date. I have a lot of stories to tell and I'll try to share a few. Maybe someone will even read them!
