Five years and counting

We had a lot of fun celebrating our wedding anniversary over the weekend. On Friday evening, we had a nice dinner at Sebastian’s, a classy place on the north side of Racine. On Saturday, I made breakfast (waffles, bacon, etc.) for the two of us. Saturday night brought some great group fun. Kenosha Bible Church […]

Winter Easter

It’s been almost a month since the last post, but we’ve had some exciting times — especially this past weekend. According to the calendar, spring should be here, but we have evidence to the contrary. Last Friday (March 21), we got over a foot of snow! We had to park the Prius on the road […]

Strumming along

I don’t blog about it much anymore, but I still play guitar and sing on Thursday nights at Our Savior’s. We’ve had a steady lineup of musicians in the band for at least a year. Besides me, we have Tina on piano/vocals, Jim on bass, and Steve on drums. We also have Melissa, who helps […]

Austin Marathon Photos / Recap

I spent the past weekend in Austin, Texas, where I ran marathon #15. My cousin, Todd, and several of his friends ran the half marathon. We all had a great time. A full recap is on the running blog, and there’s also pictures online. Enjoy!

We’re all sick of it

I’m fighting a cold this week. In addition, we got another six inches of snow, and we’re running out of places to put it. The latest BenCam picture features me shortly after Jenelle and I cleared the driveway. I look like a monster with my reflective running mittens and face mask. As you can see, […]

Tybee Island Trip + New Movies

Here’s two photo albums: Tybee Island TripTybee Island Marathon Also, be sure to check out the movies page for lots of new movies, including […]

Introducing: RunningHungry.org

Some of you may have noticed a new link in the right-hand column. It’s a new web site I created earlier this month — RunningHungry.org. For the first time ever, I am running a marathon (actually FARTHER than a marathon) to raise money for World Vision, an organization known for providing aid to children and […]

Arizona Photos

It’s already ten days old (my, how time flies!), but here are a bunch of pictures from my Arizona trip. There’s a few race-related photos, and a few more of Old Town Scottsdale, which is a neat little area mere minutes away from Laura’s house.

Christmas Photos, Part 3

Sorry for the delay. Without further ado, you are welcome to enjoy pictures from our Christmas in Oregon. In other news, the marathon went very well. Details at the running log.

Christmas Photos, Part 2 of 3

Here’s the second set of Christmastime photos. These are from the “Comande family side” (aka my mom’s family) gathering at my parents’ house on December 22. Also, be sure to check out the movies page for a preview of the Portland photos, which I’ll publish early next week. One final note for this post: I’m […]
