Fuel the Sunrises

Looking for more ways to support this crazy project? You can always add a cup of coffee to keep me going strong in the mornings, or a tank of gas to get me to some new places.

Every once in a great while I send out a newsletter with sunrise updates, life stories, project developments, and various shenanigans. I'd love to share these with you and will respect your inbox.

Blah Blah Blah

For additional sunrise photos follow both @BugsySailor and @UPSupplyCo on Instagram. I don't post daily, but you will see additional content unvailable here.

Musings | 45 words

Mornings are the new ritual. I can’t wait for the sun to start rising at 7 AM, 6AM, and earlier. To have that time between sunrise and opening the shop, where I can reflect, do nerd things, or get breakfast and coffee with a friend.

Daily Fruit dated February 5

Daily Fruit was a daily journal I kept from October 2001 through July 2015. The idea was "a few words a day keeps the psychiatrist away". Not sure that worked, but it was an incredibly healthy practice. They are meant to be read for face value.

Essentially, I'm embarrassed this is here. But you know, vulnerability and stuff.

What do you think about when you go to bed? do you smile when you wake up? where do you think about life most? who is your favorite person to talk about life with? what was the most beautiful thing you saw/thought/experienced/heard in the last week or so? do you like to dance outside? do you like to walk? do you prefer the scenic route? what makes you smile? who makes you smile? how do you like to make people smile? how would you make me smile? what are you going to do tomorrow that defies you? what are you doing to do tomorrow as an enjoyment of life?

Well yeah, he rules, but he's not the flag on the moon, he's not the ring around saturn, he's not the olive in your martini, i am.

It's strange how much better we would know beauty, if only we were blind.

She is high definition.
Lone wolf in the woods.
Good taste is in your blood, I've seen the plaid you wear.

A perfect RPF weekend.

I wonder if she's gone to the wishing well.
Come back when you know something.

Roast your marshmallow and get out.
The more you can do, the more you can do.

Navigating the high seas since 1983.
Photos cannot describe how that makes me feel.
If I'm not creating, I'm not creating.
