Negril, Jamaica
May 2012. Eight couples of college friends all turning 40 this year, a 16th wedding anniversary, rum, reefs, and a commemorative mix of reggae and its descendants, below.
We kept the spirit alive with a dinner party this weekend after returning home. Jamaican theme, of course.
- Shellfish watermelon ceviche (with scallops and shrimp, photo below)
- Jerk vegetables (summer squash, zucchini and mushrooms) and chicken skewers
- Red snapper in coconut curry broth
- Coconut lime rice
- Avocado, orange and goat cheese salad
- Appleton rum cake
- Mango sorbet
- Rum cream over ice
Full photo set here.

Recently this blog (and my Flickr account) turned 20 years old, forever in Internet years. I went back through it all, retracing digital footprints made on what feels like a different planet. Here are some highlights.
The Ampcamper
How I hauled myself, two teens, an 80 lb dog, and a whole load of crap 4000+ miles across six states in twenty days using an electric vehicle. And survived to tell the tale.
The Terror Tourist
A roughly monthly exploration of places in horror fiction — real or imagined, geographical or psychological — culled from The Heavy Leather Horror Show.
