Memorial Day

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

In retrospect, there’s another reason I’m very glad we took our trip when we did a few weeks ago. Having just been to Arlington, and the WWII Memorial, Antietam and Gettysburg, etc. it’s much easier for me to come into today with the proper level of remembrance.

Remember the Sacrifices

It’s certainly nice to have a three day weekend, and I’m glad the unofficial start to the Summer season is upon us, but this day is about more than that. Amid your celebrations today, take a moment to remember those who have made it possible and say thank you to those who are still with us.

    As I mentioned earlier when there was a discount available for the Sandisk iXpand, I did order one to solve a specific problem I have with my iPhone. It being an older 16GB model, it was constantly running out of space. Part of that was the growing size of apps, and part of that was…

    I wanted to take a moment to wish you all a fun, safe, and relaxing holiday season. Thanks for connecting with me online, and in person, and providing me some stable connections over this last year. It’s been quite a whirlwind, and I look forward to more adventures in 2015! Though, hopefully, I figure out…

    Stopping to Smell the Flowers

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    Just because work has been crazy and zapped all of my mental energy of late, it was really nice to spend Saturday afternoon/evening just having a little fun again. Took this with the iPhone, and again, I don’t think it compares to the digital SLR, but it’s not shabby either. Follow these topics: Personal, PhotoExport,…
