Thought this might be of interest to some of the golf fans here. It's a series of drone videos a couple of my buddies from the Register-Guard put together of the the course at Eugene Country Club (host of both the women's NCAA championships this weekend and the men's tournament next weekend)...

No more snow pics at the moment, but this is Henry saying "GOOD MORNING!!!!!"

Nothing to see here, just Henry going on his first trip to play in the snow. In case you can't tell, he had a blast.

Luckily, no. He's been pretty good so far. He's a little mischievous but doesn't seem to be a big chewer, digger or humper. All that could change at the drop of a hat, however.

Meet Henry, our new Bernese Mountain Dog pup. These are just crappy iPhone photos, but in case you can't tell, he's pretty much the most adorable thing of all time. And here he is crying like a bitch because he doesn't want to go to bed. Luckily that's not my slipper...

Spent the last few nights I had with Hannah curled up on an inflatable mattress in the office sorting through 10 years of photos and other memories. It was incredibly sad but also incredibly uplifting to see all of the amazing adventures we shared together. I put together a little video...

Hate to be Debbie Downer, but it looks like we'll have to put our 11-year-old Berner down later this week. We adopted her when we first moved to Portland and needed a companion for our 1-year-old Gordon Setter while my wife and I were both working crazy shifts. Hannah quickly took over our lives...

Not at all. This was a hike to Caribou Lake. It's about a 10-mile day to get to Caribou Lake proper, but there are a pair of smaller lakes (Lower Caribou and Snowslide) that you can hit around the 8.5-mile mark. Lots of good camp sites in the lakes basin. The second day we did a short day...

No exotic vacations to brag about, just a couple photos from a great backpacking trip in the Trinity Alps. Possibly the most underrated slice of wilderness in the country, if you ask me...

Recovery can be a pain in the ass. Mostly you just have to keep your dog from doing pretty much anything other than walking outside to go to the bathroom. Not sure how energetic your pup is, so that may or may not be a problem. You're probably looking at a good 6-8 weeks before you can start...

I mean, I guess I'd have a hard time turning down $4 million from my employer for basically quitting my job, but anyone who takes coaching seriously at the NFL level would rather be the head coach of a potential playoff contender than the offensive line coach for one of the 2-3 worst teams in...

I hope Doug Marrone feels like a fucking idiot this morning. You're the head coach of a 9-win team with one of the nastiest defenses in the NFL, but you opt out of your contract after two years in some sort of misguided hissy fit thinking you can parlay your limited success into a high profile...

Jesus, I've flown to Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore at different times. Kinda feeling lucky that my corpse isn't at the bottom of the ocean right now. Might be a while before I head back that way.

I'd claim that I've heard of five of these bands, but that might be overly optimistic.
