RIP: James Kim

Friday, December 8th, 2006 · Comments Off on RIP: James Kim

CNET has created a very nice memorial to James Kim, their Senior Editor who sacrificed his own life to save his family after their car got stuck in the snow in the Oregon wilderness. After a 7-day search for Kim, his body was found earlier this week. I think maybe this story hits close to […]

Coalition of the Tasty

Thursday, December 7th, 2006 · 1 Comment

I’m finally catching up… or at least it feels like I’m making some progress. This is a post about the events that unfolded on the evening of Saturday, November 18, 2006. Am I the most timely blogger in the world or what? The events in question were the making and tasting of the most excellent […]

Finally: Snow!

Monday, December 4th, 2006 · 1 Comment

Four days into December and snow has finally arrived in Saratoga Springs! I’ve been jealous of all the early season snow that’s hit other parts of the country — Buffalo and Colorado in October, Tahoe and the Midwest during the past few weeks — but I’m grinning my snow grin right now as I look […]

So Much to Blog About

Monday, December 4th, 2006 · 2 Comments

Sometimes it feels like my life goes non-stop. I used to be better about writing about each day as I lived it and even posting all the relevant pictures. Lately, though, as you may have noticed, I’ve fallen a couple weeks behind in posting photos for all the exciting things going on. When I have […]
