Listen
I believe everything we dream
can come to pass through our union
we can turn the world around
we can turn the earth's revolution
we have the power
People have the power

On this Presidents' Day I once again share a picture of the only President of the United States I've ever had any personal interaction with. Thank you for the Sunday School lesson, Mr. President.
“Take care of each other," he said, "even the people we don’t like.”

Motor boat on the velodrome track in Asheville's Carrier Park where a shirtless rollerblading guy is blazing through in mid-February despite all the debris.

I tip my hat to your resilience and rebound, Asheville.

I don't spend time on Instagram so I didn't see this until it was pointed out to me. The TODAY Show posted about the essay I wrote for them and it received nearly 40,000 likes.

Before AI became a thing, I wrote for a low-paying content mill creating articles based on what people were searching for online. There were a lot of crazy titles that showed up in the queue. One that sticks out in my mind is, "When did Bob Dylan invent electricity?"

Sunset at the beach, Scenic Highway 30A, Florida Panhandle, Sept. 9, 2023.
I'm doing research for an on spec article about the public beach controversy in South Walton. I'd like to hear all sides from those who know about it.

Everyone should visit the lobby of The Roosevelt Hotel in New Orleans at Christmastime at least once in their lives. And take it all in while sipping a Sazerac from the lobby bar where the cocktail was invented.

Posting a picture of #BlueSkies for this week's #TopTravelPics with the #TravelAddicts.
Cheating here a bit because this is home for me in rural Georgia's Lake Country region, but still a worthy travel destination with big lakes, small towns, and lots of hay fields in between.

Have you seen the new hit Peacock limited series "Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist"? It's a story I've been covering for 22 years.

Here's the story behind the story of the making of Fight Night that I wrote recently for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:

For my first post on this new platform this seems as good as any. Me and Jimmy Carter at his church (Maranatha Baptist) in Plains, GA, after he taught me Sunday school in April of 2018. That's him seated at left ;)
