I write for a living so me and my six year old son Cedar can hang out but does that impress Cedar. In a word, no.
He could care less what I do but he loves Offbeat, he likes the houses and the furniture; he really wants an extravagant treehouse I can’t possible afford.
Him and I [...]

Sorry I was so late. I forget that just because I’m on the west coast there are lots of east coast readers.
Now remember we want Josh to win. If you like Offbeat Homes then it would be nice if you support Josh [...]

First off; I honestly like to keep it positive around here. Easy to do [...]
Sol Fest XII is happening real soon; as in three days from now (August 18-19). I meant to plug it sooner — but darn it, I’m not going this year so I forgot.
