STIMULATING MY AGING BRAIN WHILE EMBARRASSING MY CHILDREN
Dispatches From Antarctica
Kevin spent the period from November 2009 to March 2010 working in Anarctica at the US's South Pole Station. His primary job was assist in dismantling the existing station's dome structure - to be replaced by a new building. This is a series of "dispatches" I put together while he was there.
USDA National Nutrient Database
This is not really a story but rather an interactive implementation of Release 21 of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Nutrient Database. This started out as an exercise to help learn a new programming language. It turned out pretty well so I decided to give it a place on the site. It allows the user to get a complete nutrient breakdown of 7400 common foods including portions of meals sold at grocery stores and restaurants. Someday, I will update it to a more current release.
Kevin & David's Big Adventure
After Kevin's work at the South Pole ended, he returned to New Zealand where met up with friend David and they embarked on an adventure that included New Zealand and India with numerous stops in between. The adventure culminated in Darjeeling, India where they attended a mountaineering class at the Himalayan Mountaineering Institute. The adventure is described here in the form of pictures and an annotated interactive map.
As a Photojournalist
After graduating with a degree in Journalism, Will went to work as a photojournalist for a newspaper in northwest Arkansas. Over the next few years he took hundreds of photographs while on the job, many of which were published in the daily newspapers (the ratio of photos taken to photos published is high). This page contains many samples of his work.
My Greatest Generation
Few of the generation that fought World War II are still alive today. I grew up, as did my wife, in the presence of many of those, including my father and her father, who fought the battles and in other ways contributed to the wartime effort. These pages are comprised of my attempts to tell and preserve their stories.
