I’ve come to really enjoy hiking. Getting away from people and the stress of the world. To detox the mind and soul, with no care in the world. Plus it’s always nice to have father & son time.
Just mild-mannered blogger & podcaster! Fighting a never-ending battle for fandoms & sharing all my misadventures in life.

About half way through our adventure. Was playing around the the filters and thought this was looked cool. I’ll post the original one later.
On our way to getting lost in the woods. Definitely need to go back.
We went on an adventure today. Aside from rain and legs being a little jelly. It was beyond worth it!
Happy 4th of July! Be safe out there!
Everything is so lush and green. All you hear is the wind and birds, with gentle taps of rain mixed in. Not a soul in sight…. I need to back. As time goes on, I find myself wanting to getaway from the city. It’s good to reconnect with nature, help detox from the technology driven life we live. It’s funny to say that, seeing how I work in IT hahaha. But it’s good to have balanced in life.

We’ve been meaning to follow up on our video detailing the history of Original D&D. So today, we finally continue our discussion with the history of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons, aka 1st Edition. We discuss not only some of the major changes from the previous edition but also some of the messy history that was going on behind the scenes. It involves not only corporate politics and backstabbing but also paranoia about Satanism and witchcraft.
