Fireworks Independence Day long exposure dog glow collar

I spent most of the fourth getting the master bathroom ready for cement board. The cuts all worked out pretty well but when I went to the hardware store for roofing felt I came back with more projects. Bulbs for the cable lights, a concrete pier for the deck, chlorine granules for the pool, and rock for the planters. I wound down the afternoon weeding, painting, and rocking the planters.

Cenote dive Cancun Mexico cave

This is all on the heels of five days in Playa Del Carmen for Ryan and Ashlee's wedding. Jon, Ty, and I managed to sneak in a cenote dive with the local shop.

2015 Year in Review - bradt.ca

 TL;DR - The Delicious Brains team more than doubled in size, revenue nearly doubled, and we started selling a second product. I had a great year personally playing ultimate, tennis, and traveling to Mexico. Wow, look at that, I only published one lonely article here in 2015 and it was my year in review. But [...]

Notes on the Yucatan - Matt Lakeman

 I spent eight days in the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, primarily in and around the cities of Cancun, Valladolid, and Merida. Honestly, it wasn't a great trip.
