Long Time No Blog
Yet again many days, weeks and months have flown by without a word from me. That's what happens when you get married, jet set to Thailand for your honeymoon, move to Brooklyn and start a new job all within less than 2 months. 2017 is upon us and all of the excitement of 2016 will …
