Back in the River.... By Miles

Hello my dear friends,

I'm back as Jack would say. It's been a crazy adventure over the last few months. I have relocated to Austin and the world is on fire. I have not posted anything in some time. It's good really because I have had a bunch of things to get in order. Some good and some not so good. Now, they are done.

I will not be posting a photo a day for awhile but something similar will be back. I want to post life photos of things going on around me and of people that I meet along the way. "My Life, one photo a day" was a great project but amazingly hard to execute. The lessons learned from "My life, one photo a day" will never be forgotten and I hope to share some of these with you as we move down the road.

It's amazing being back in Austin. There is so much energy here. I left almost 14 years ago. Much has changed here but this is home to me and I guess it always will be no matter where I am. So By Miles is coming back. You will start seeing video, photos, and art from "BY MILES" again. There will also be video and short form from the deck of the "Slow Dancer".

So please spread the word that Austin is about to "Go Live".

Ciao,

Miles

One of my favorite places in Austin is tucked away on the Western edge of the hike and bike trail. It's Lou Neff Point. An old stone picnic structure where Barton Springs drains into the Colorado. This place without question as the best view of downtown. Go on a cool clear night with a bottle of wine and enjoy. Miles

There is something strangely beautiful about a rusted truck with a few large bore bullet holes in it. I guess it's just a Texas thing. MIles

The Doctor is in. Well, at least for the pig trachea that is. This is my airway management course at the Texas EMS conference. It's strange to say it is fun to do surgical airways on pigs but it really is. Unfortunately, the pig didn't survive and we didn't get to make any sausage.... maybe next year. Miles.

What do you put on your resume when you are a bikeshaw dude. Strong legs, able to work in stressful conditions, or maybe "driven" I'm not ready for another career change but if I do....Miles

Those of you who know me well, know my attachment to the nectar of the grape. Through the years I have always struggled with life's most difficult questions. Oaked or unoakded.....Sonoma or Napa...... Dry or not dry. So I decided to become a master of my own destiny. The first vintage of Le Petit Chardonnay de Villa Hilla. My winemaking career as begun. A progress report and tasting will be scheduled for approximately 7 months from today. Save the Date. MIles
