I took my son to a nudist colony
|
Reader, I took my 23 year old son to a networking mixer at a nudist colony. And no, I did not tell him where we were going. I knew he would throw a fit, so I kept that little detail to myself. Then right before we left, he looked up the address. I pulled up the email and showed him that yes, people would be clothed. Still not amused. Then we started driving down this road to nowhere, endlessly, and I was trying very hard not to laugh, because I could hear the wheels turning in his head, spinning faster than the actual wheels on the car. You will be surprised what happened next. I'll share that tomorrow. P.S. Doh, I realized I forgot the link to the Linkedin post where I asked AI to help me blend into the background.

He talked to several people, one of them an electrician who had just started his own business, after quitting a job that had turned toxic. He has an 18-year-old son and tells him...
Reader, If you saw yesterdayβs email, you know I took my 23-year-old son to a networking mixer at a nudist community without telling him where we were going. Us on a trail hiking in what is practically our backyard, connecting without technology. The mixer. It was great. People were warm, friendly, and yes, fully dressed. Worth repeating. π Someone handed my son a card about volunteering at their nonprofit, and someone else asked him to follow up about a possible opportunity. In that one...
Dear Reader, My dad's birthday was July 4. Every year when I called to wish him a happy birthday, he'd answer with a smile and say, "You know all of America is celebrating my special day." This year will be my first July 4 without hearing that familiar joke. He passed away last November, and this year I'll celebrate him by eating one of his favorite desserts and looking through our old family photos. My dad was the reason I fell in love with photographs. The ones he took and the ones other...
