the constant of change
IT WAS 36 YEARS AGO today that I first hung the shingle of my new little company, C. C. Rigg's, an advertising studio. I wish I could say I had a big vision, a grand idea, or even a sketch of a business plan that resulted in the firm that's known today as Riggs...
What has surprised us along the way.
TODAY IS DAY 4 of our Westward Ho! RV adventure, and it's a big travel day for us. We're crossing Arkansas edge to edge, east to west, and covering 290 miles. We'll also hit our first 1,000 mile marker, not too far from Fort Smith. Some surprises, so far, along the...

Day 25: Flat White
THE FORECAST WAS for "wintry mix." A slim chance of snow before 6am, but definitely rain, freezing rain, then rising temps and more rain. That's not what happened. To my delight, when we woke up it was snowing and it was still snowing when, near the end of my workday,...
