Project 365 – Day 42 My employer, NCR, has a rich 130 year heritage of innovation, not the least of which was the cash register. It was the origin of the company in 1884, founded by John H. Patterson. Patterson marketed to consumers, suggesting they demand a receipt. This, in turn, created demand and an […]
Project 365 – Day 41 I consider myself open to technology and its rapid change. I’m not a techno-geek by any stretch, but I readily embrace new technologies that bring efficiencies and new capabilities. Smart phones are just one example, and in my personal case, the iPhone 6 Plus is an amazing device. However, one […]

Project 365 – Day 37 I have mentioned in a prior post the organization in which I work being very much like a “start -up”. We are <100 employees with a common purpose covering all aspects of a cloud-based business – sales, marketing, operations, IT, R&D, product management, customer care, business development, and finance. We […]
Project 365 – Day 36 Much of everyday life in the Atlanta area is spent driving. Too much. I suppose it is the trade off we make for suburban life. I am reminded of my many visits to European metropolitan areas around London, Edinburgh, Prague, and Dublin where walking is so much more the norm. […]

Project 365 – Day 34 February 3rd – Happy Birthday to my true love and best friend, Kathy! Poor girl had to work not only today, but tonight as well. So there would be no family birthday dinner or celebratory photos taken of my sweetheart. Just adoration of everything she means to me, which is […]
Project 365 – Day 33 This weekend I eclipsed month one of my year long Project 365 challenge. A few key observations as I reflect: I am encouraged. I’ve been able to stick with my commitment to capture a unique, interesting image each day. As mentioned from the outset, there may occasionally be days I’m […]
Day 365 – Day 32 “Don’t cross the bridge until you you get to it.” ~ English Proverb How true. Fears and worries are most often tied to letting our minds wander to the negative side of what we don’t yet know. We try to solve problems before they exist. We concern ourselves with that […]
Project 365 – Day 31 30+ years at one company has afforded Kathy and me the blessing of meeting many incredible people. Some have become life long friends with whom we still meet up, even though we’ve gone in separate career directions. Kathy rendezvoused with Donna, Julie, and Diana for a fun night of […]

Project 365 – Day 29 Ever watchful for my daily image, I saw a beautiful curving walkway while at an appointment today. I fetched my little X100s from the messenger bag, and I began exploring and experimenting. I photographed this area for a good 10 minutes, at which point I heard a very polite, “Sir, […]
