• No jumping? not in these pants!

    No jumping? not this trip ;), originally uploaded by Random and Odd. What an AWESOME hike this was! Don and Amanda came from the city to go over some prep work for the wedding and Don said he wanted to see the Foresthill bridge (large bridge in the back of the photo) in the day…

  • Stuck in a moment….

    Mt. Lassen shoes., originally uploaded by Random and Odd. Alyx passed! She is a black belt now! I was surprised how hard it was for her. She was so nervous. It was a turning point in her life and you could see it. Proud doesn’t cover how I feel. Turning points seem to be a…

    I’ve moved to the dark side…, originally uploaded by Suddenly Single. I was asked why I would switch over…and right now it’s just to be able to have proof that when I talk shit about Canon, I can have some sort of reference to the shit talking. So far, Nikon is still better. It’s Friday….

  • The longest weekend in history!

    5 of the 15, originally uploaded by Suddenly Single. It feels like my weekend started on Thursday when my brothers and sister came to visit. On Friday they left and Alyx and her birthday party showed up at 3pm. She wanted a Toy Story theme, and who am I to deny a 14 year old?…

Why I Started My Personal Blog

I started Random and Odd back in 2002 or so because it was all the rage and my mom and sister were perpetually online either playing games or finding recipes.
I decided that I wanted to be able to write what I was going through as a parent and keep them updated on what the girls were saying or doing. It started out just a way for me to vent, rant or laugh about life.
It turned into more when other people outside of my mom and sister started reading it and through the years it was just a place for Stuff Portrait Fridays, meeting other people blogging and making those people friends. It was a place to put down a photo I took that I was proud of and then it was a place to talk about the traveling I was doing. Now it’s just a dumping ground of bullshit that is swirling in my head.

I want to get back to writing, taking photos and traveling and doing a complete redo of R & 0 was needed to document.
Enjoy the minimalist look.
