Hail to the Dinosaurs!
In an earlier email I mentioned
that I was going to be posting
a lot of photos on Instagram -
and that they were going to
cover a big adventure.
If you've been reading the
Dinosaur Files newsletter
this year, then you know
what I'm talking about.
I've been covering it in the
newsletter - but keeping it
quiet otherwise.
Anyhow, here's the short
version.
Trudi and I have done what
many folks our age do.
We've sold our big, old house
and downsized.
We're living about five blocks
away from the old place - in a
great little two-bedroom
apartment. It's the top floor
or an old house, so it feels a
lot like the old place.
I have a new office for all of
my writing, with bookshelves
everywhere - filled to bursting
with old books and magazines.
Trudi loves it. After 20 years in
a five-bedroom house, this feels
like a vacation to her.
The only bad part is this -- we
don't have any room for my
weights. So I moved them into
an old-school, black iron dungeon
gym a couple of blocks away, and
I'm training there.
I even moved my old lifting
platform into the gym -- so
I'm able to hit those snatches
and clean and jerks as much
as I want.
After so many years training in my
basement gym, and then in my
garage gym, this is a big change.
I'll write about it in future emails.
There's a lot that you can learn
(some good and some bad) by
watching what happens in a
commercial gym, even an old-
fashioned one with real iron.
Anyhow, I took a ton of photos of
the old place, the old office, and the
old gym -- meaning the Dino Dungeon
in the garage -- and photos of the day
we moved the iron to the gym -- and
lots of other photos covering different
parts of the journey.
I'll start posting them today -- so be
sure to check them out.

Yours in strength,
