I got excited when I first read about the release of a grill component that claims to turn your standard 22.5” kettle grill into a neapolitan-style baking oven. The product is called the KettlePizza. It’s a pretty simple design. Weekend warriors have been making homemade components and augmentations like thisRead more
The wife was teaching sewing lessons out of the house today, so I decided to drop by the monthly Hagood Mill singer/songwriter showcase event. Hagood Mill is a great slice of Americana: One of the finest regional examples of nineteenth century technology can be found just three miles north ofRead more
The wife and I recently took a business/pleasure trip to the Pacific Northwest. The business part consisted of the wife competing for a spot on Sew It All TV at an expo near Tacoma, Washington. After that was over, we drove to Gig Harbor on Puget Sound to have dinnerRead more

Since it’s early autumn and there were no big SEC football games during the afternoon, the wife and I thought we’d spend some time in the mountains. We recently climbed the Lookout Tower at Frying Pan Mountain in the Pisgah National Forest. Black Balsam Knob Mountain is about ten milesRead more
Some days are ordinary. Other days are extraordinary. Yesterday was what I refer to as a bookmark day.
The wife and I wanted to get outside this weekend, but the heat and mosquitoes make it difficult to do too much during the day. So we decided to visit the walking trails at nearby Conestee Park early on Saturday morning. At some point in the near future, the SwampRead more
My job involves staying up to date with social media trends. As part of that effort, I keep a Hobby Blog. It’s mostly a public scrapbook for my friends and family. I also keep a travelogue of my outdoor adventures at C.C. Hikes.
