World of McCool

I was working on a photo album that I’m going to print off eventually, and I was reminded of some of the sand sculptures I’ve done on different trips to the beach. I decided I have enough of them photographed to make an album of them and post them on this page.

So I’ve been hanging out with my paternal grandparents, taking it extremely easy, I must say. Adapting to their senior schedule is no trouble for me, in spite of what one might expect. I tend to be in bed before ten o’clock (nine is when I usually head that direction) and wake by […]

It got me to thinking about the chronology of my adventures, and I’ve decided to do a timeline, starting around 2003, when […]

Pictures are up! I am going to go through some of this web coding and see if I can figure out how to link them to the posts they pertain to, but that may be a while. More to come.

Aside from being very relaxing, my time here at Rabbit Flat has proved most educational. There are so many things I want to learn and skills I want to develop before the time comes for me to make my final break with the empire, and my training is underway.
