Life in Duct Work

Life doesn’t necessarily get brighter at the paint shop…in fact, they get duller. During my time as a painter, I realized that there a lot of colors. In particular, there were a lot of colors that we weren’t using. Mind you I wasn’t an artist by any means, I was the painter you see mudding […]

Now the Snow Falls!

So after posting about a surprising lack of snow literally last night, I happened to wake up to a winter wonderland. I guess I am at odds with the environmental universe that surrounds us lately.
