introPLAY Picnic at Discovery Park
Photo by Kevin Pittman Today we had a picnic at Discovery Park to celebrate the end of our introLEAGUE.

And right now, I must admit I’m pretty tuckered out. It was a pretty leisurely trek though and the weather was actually rather nice, not that cold and even sunshine.…

2007 Book List
Last year, after repeatedly walking into Barnes & Noble and looking longingly at all the possibilities, I made a New Year’s resolution to be more proactive reading.
