This Blog
“Meandering Passage,” has reflected my journey since 2006. The term ‘Meandering’ signifies a winding path or perhaps slowing down and observing, while ‘Passage’ represents both a physical journey and a written excerpt, both of which describe the evolution of content over the years in this blog.
Initially focused on Apple Mac computers, the blog has transformed into a personal photoblog and a journal of life events and perhaps a few lessons learned. While I can’t predict its direction in a year, I hope it continues to evolve.
Me
I am the owner and primary editor of “Meandering Passage,” a platform where I publish information, document personal observations, and share my photography.
I see my life as a “Meandering Passage,” filled with diverse experiences. I grew up on a farm, served in the United States Air Force, and worked in Information Systems as a programmer, designer, and manager for an international manufacturing company. I also spent time as a motorcycle mechanic and traveled full-time in an RV. I’m now retired, but am still actively in the process of self-discovery.
Maggie was our beloved furry companion and inspiration contributor, who is sadly no longer with us, except in our hearts.
