Settling ino the new routine. Want to write more, photograph more. Maybe a poem every Friday?


Thinking of personalizing the blog more with prattling like this, not sure tho.


Lifting. Have kept lifting throughout the transition. Minimal maintenance mostly, but that's enough. I've done it.


Here's a great quote overheard, from a co-worker: Most people would kill to have motivation like that.

OCB PNW States Championship



Over the weekend, I had the pleasure of helping to bring the first OCB show to Oregon, an area in need of a natural bodybuilding outlet. I judged and served as expeditor. The venue -- La Salles Auditorium on the OSU campus in Corvallis -- was fabulous, as was the quality and energy of the competitors. The spirit of the show was typical OCB - a supportive, nurturing and rewarding environment promoting camaraderie and respect.

Pics and scorecards at the OCB website.
