Husband. Father. Adventurer. My Blog.
The genesis of most things is necessity. I am actually starting this blog because of a class assignment. Necessity, however, is a terrible reason to blog. Passion for something, though, is a great reason.
I am passionate about a lot of things, actually. Debating, for example, is something that I quite enjoy. I love being a husband. I have tremendous memories, and new ones every day, of just being a husband and hanging with my wife, Brenda. I love being a father. I have three kids, Ashton (5), Oliver (3) and Adelle (1.5). They drive me completely bonkers, every day, but I love it.
This best sums up Adelle: http://memories.nokia.com/en/images/62606601-fe4a-4163-9c8e-91a869752919. Yep, she’s awesome, playing Just Dance on the Wii like it’s nothing but a thing.
With so many things to be stoked about, you’d think it would be hard to choose one as the overall theme, but it actually wasn’t. With my family growing up, with my brothers and friends in college, on my own and with my family, I found that adventure was the dominant theme in my life. So this blog is to celebrate life as an adventure…in all its forms…in the outdoors.
I promise to provide as much eye candy as possible with as little text as possible. I love looking at pictures of mountains, far off places, deep blue oceans, bright green fields, raging waterfalls…and yes, mountains. I would be untrue to myself if I blabbered on and on. I rarely care what others have to say in their blogs – I’m usually just there for the pics. So, I promise eye candy. If not for anyone else, at least for myself.
Hope you enjoy.
Best,
Lorin
I am hooked already, Lorin. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure.
Sonal, hope its a ride worth taking 🙂 Thanks for the encouragement
Lorin, this sounds interesting. Where is the most adventurous place you have gone? One adventurous place that I have on my bucket list is Antarctica. From what I hear is that it is amazing.
Great question – I honestly couldn’t say. Two that stick out are 1. climbing grand Teton over thanksgiving – almost fell through a crevasse. that woulda stunk. That was adventurous, I guess. 2. honey moon in costa rica, me and Brenda rented a little scooter and rode up and down the pacific coast. that was pretty cool.
This is pretty cool. You should put your kids in here more often. Your kids are way cooler than you.
nate amen. They’re waaay cooler. not even close. i’ll be sure to put less me, more them 🙂
