Thank you to and the team at for the retro uniforms this year. Going for an old school 90’s look. And the ‘Brain Bucket’ image on a grey performance tee is solid!

After a 46 year gold medal drought in hockey, I don't think I'll be visiting the Miracle rink at Lake Placid this week, but this old article from a past experience Lake Placid over 10 years ago always comes to mind.

Looking forward to seeing many in the lacrosse world next week in the Adirondacks!

Going for a finish today and then shift focus on an architectural piece/drawing for the rest of the week. It’s good to change it up, to recharge and reset the batteries, sort of speak.

In college I took a freshman year required course: ‘Light. Color & Design’ or “LCD” for short. Didn’t really enjoy the negative-minded professor, which made me not like the class.

But 30 years later, I still find myself executing the techniques from it. Funny how that happens.
