I've been everywhere, man. I'm the guy who first said the thing (IYKYK). Amanda's husband. Brady's dad. I like typewriters more than most people I know.
Sunset Theatre, home edition. This plumeria tree was once just a bare stick Amanda found on the ground after Hurricane Ian. The Earth abides.

Merry Christmas to one and all from the Obley clan. Sort of a business-as-usual day here, since the newspaper biz just keeps newspaperin’ but it won’t be a hard day by any measure. Starting the day with my 1972 Olympic Triumph and staring out at my little corner of paradise.

I really am enjoying the heck out of shooting photos. Investing in the proper equipment has taken time, but I’m almost there. Need one more lens and perhaps a second camera body. #sportsphotography #journalism

This Triumph typewriter was made especially for the 1972 Olympics. What stories must it have written during those dark days in Munich?

Anyone else here have a week in which they didn’t write a word and now they doubt themselves in all things?

This little beauty engenders some of the most polarizing opinions in the #typosphere but a good one (like this one) is just a dream to type on. #writers #writingcommunity

Into everyone’s life, an Olivetti Studio 44 should come. #typewriters #writing #writingcommunity

Today’s typewriter is a lovely late 1950s Olympia SM3. Built like a tank, but smooth as butter. #writing

The kind of content you’ll see from me in this space: Today’s typewriter is a Remington 1 portable. It’s 103 years old and will probably outlive me.

During the signup process, I did that interest thing, but either Blue Sky's people only share cat pictures or I did something wrong.

Hello, everyone. Still doing the usual thing over at the other site because #journalism, but looking forward to seeing what this is all about.
