Thursday, August 13, 2015. When I visited Portland for the second time on my Roadtrip Through California and Oregon. I had the opportunity to attend one of Mechanic Dans bike races. I had never watched a bike race before. I was excited to see Mechanic Dan strut his stuff! Dear readers, meet Team Gentle Lovers. Team Gentle Lovers consists of Mechanic Dan and Andrew the Utzmeister. Wednesday, August 12, 2015. A Roadtrip Through California and Oregon. Tuesday, August 11, 2015.

Sunday, June 14, 2015. When plagued with rain, wind, and muddy waters, open up the history book. Over the past several weeks I have been following schools of redfish throughout the marshes of Delacroix, La. And while it usually seems easy to just launch your boat or kayak and begin catching reds within minutes, this past weekend was a completely different story. Why did these fish move.

I went exploring yesterday at the Croatan National Forest in Cedar Point, NC. Me, Nana, and Pop Pop followed the boardwalk trail through the salt marsh, over to the White Oak River, and back through the forest. I collected rocks, sticks, pine cones, and leaves. I threw most of the rocks off the bridges into the water or mud. It was fun! Out for a Ride. I got a swing set.

With Rock, Blues, Jazz, and even Folk roots, Mount and Lion performs the music of Harrison Edwards and his longtime band mate and rhythmic collaborator Brandon Pertzborn. With intricate and compelling riffs, engaging rhythms, and powerful vocals the group channels classic and contemporary influences to deliver a style all their own. Come see them play, tell a friend, buy some music.
