I enjoy seeing all the new Fall goods being released.  It’s a barrage that is welcome, even though our highs are still in the 90s.  It’s a reminder that in a few short months, we’ll be waking up to cool,…

I recently made the plunge on upgrading my ‘walking around’ Fuji Camera.  I’d been shooting with an X-100T for YEARS, and loved it.  It has seen a lot of miles: hunting trips, fishing trips, family vacations, etc.  It’s a fixed-lens…

With the release of the AP Preseason Top 25, it finally feels like college football season is upon us. I’ve been a pretty casual fan this offseason. I know enough to follow the headlines, but not enough to tell you…
