I was recently in Chicago for work then met up with my wife & family in Maine. I didn’t get out much in Chicago, I was pretty busy with work – but when I did get out, here are the pictures I snapped:

That was pretty much it for Chicago. Also have a few pictures from Maine. It was an amazing time of year to visit as the leaves were changing over and the weather wasn’t cold yet.

We spent last Christmas in Thailand. This year, we spent our Christmas snowboarding the Swiss Alps in Zermatt, Switzerland and rang in the new year in Milan, Italy. There was so much to this trip, and I promised a long and inclusive video for everyone, but a documentary-style video comprised of 100’s of hours of footage from 7 people that attended the trip is going to take a long, long time.
So, in the meantime, I pulled some snowboarding footage from my GoPro and threw together a 6 minute recap of what some of the snowboarding was like while I wait for everyone’s footage to roll in and begin the long process of organizing and editing the final “Group Zermatt-Milan 2018/19 film.”
