Going to the store, by himself
I’ve become a four-trick pony.
Although I reserve the right to write about anything, topics typically center around raising a child with autism, OCR (obstacle course racing), golf, and, of course, politics – in which everyone is somehow an expert. Especially me.
Don’t expect Pulitzer Prize winning writing here. Just miscellaneous thoughts from a miscellaneous guy.

About Me
However, the dichotomy of my life confuses even me at times…

The 2020 Arizona Spartan Sprint
This past Sunday, I completed my 11th Spartan Race. Every race – from Spartan to Rugged Maniac – seems to have a story to tell; memories that stay with you forever. You always remember your first. Then there was the time I sort of shadowed a special needs adult with this family. Last year I…
Great IEP Update

To say it went well would be an understatement. It was incredible! And we walked away with some very good, and certainly encouraging, news. Since being diagnosed with autism prior to…
