CHANNEL REBUILD IN PROGRESS

I'm a GenX dad who started this channel as a way to get past fitness & learning plateaus for my interests. Since I've gotten older, newer skills definitely aren't acquired quite as easily as when I was younger - with free time always a factor. However, even after becoming a father I've never slowed down in my pursuit of interests that are more lifelong passion projects. Some of my favorite things, I want to see what I can improve upon, take up new skills, and figure out where that learning plateau hits and how I can move past it to get to the next level. The topics may evolve, but my love of martial arts, rock music, fitness, foreign language are always expanding.
I practiced Taekwondo for 15 years, but 2016 switched to Okinawan Karate which took me into a different direction in my learning and interests & led me to begin traveling to Japan yearly.

Heading to Missouri to see my family! My cousin and her husband and kids are all coming up from Georgia as well! It's going to be a great time!

For now, please check out the view from this mountain near where I grew up in the Ozarks where I used to go hiking (The real Ozarks... Not the TV show🤣)... I'm going back there next week! If you recognize it, it's the banner on my title page. I hope to make a bit of content while in Missouri as well.

I'm going to open up some of the videos back up on this channel, but with extra focus on the learning motivation.

The second channel I make will be the travel/walking and talking stuff and the old videos will be ported over with new content.

The third channel I've made is for my band Non-Verbatim. Our live setlist is now the focus of practice sessions with more to come. Once that content is ready, the channel goes live. Until then, gotta wait🤘

I think this will maintain the focus and intent more closely.

This week while I'm on business in Chicago, I'm actually staying in Chinatown right by the old railyard where I worked for several years. It's weird being back at my old workplace. I've never really explored it before, so I'm trying different restaurants.

Last night I had a katsu sandwich with picked sesame cucumber. During the day today I joined my co-workers for dumplings and right now I'm getting Chinese BBQ!😋

Good stuff!
