Tammy got this cool bookshelf for the kids to keep their books in.
Someone make a Pinboard2Wordpress plugin?

Vacation Coffee Break
I’m on vacation this week. We went to North Dakota earlier. Today I spent the day with Tyler and it was great. Tomorrow Mazie and I are having a Daddy/Daughter day.
While Tyler tried to nap, I did get time for a wonderful Chemex coffee break. Very nice.
Note the old school Road Sign Math coffee mug. š
One of my favorite mashups we ever did at MarketWatch put realtime news on a live timeline. Cool stuff.
TimelineSetter: A New Way to Display Timelines on the Web ā Iām a big fan of timelines as a tool to tell a story. Excited that ProPublica is making it easier.

Less is More
Sometimes a song has lyrics that are so striking you can’t help but take note. This is a great section from “Society” by Eddie Vedder on the Into the Wild soundtrack.
There’s those thinkin’ more or less, less is more,
but if less is more, how you keepin’ score?
It means for every point you make, your level drops.
Kinda like you’re startin’ from the top… and you can’t do that.
Beautiful and makes you think.
This is our plan for the day. 592.2 miles.
First Shots with Lensbaby
For Christmas this year Tammy got me a fun lens for my camera, the Lensbaby Composer. When I did the Stone/Steel/People workshop I mentioned that my pro friend Layne was obsessed with shooting with his Lensbaby. I thought it would be a fun option to have in my camera bag and Tammy decided it would be a fun present. I haven’t been shooting much but I used it when I was in Grand Marais this last weekend and here are some shots with it. These were all shot on manual at f/4.
