The last third is not an ending.
It’s a deeper, intentional way of living.
This is a private-first journal; thoughts, decisions, learning, and perspective.
About
I’m documenting the last third of my life, not as a countdown, but as a chapter worth living deliberately. This site exists as a home base for the idea and an archive for notes. The outdoors shows up here often, because it clarifies everything. But it’s only one part of the whole.
If you found your way here, feel free to look around. If you didn’t, that’s fine too.
Themes
Work & Craft
Building, fixing, selling, learning. Trying to do it cleanly and without losing myself to urgency.
Health & Resilience
Strength, recovery, joints, patience. Not denying limits—working with them.
Time Outside
Remote wilderness survival — thriving, fishing, hunting, foraging, bushcraft.
Business & Experiments
Technology consulting & sales, nursery/homestead work, investing, and the long arc of building something real.
Money & Attention
Investing is a mirror. So is spending. Both reveal what I think the future is worth.
Perspective
Reflections, insights, lessons learned — looking ahead with optimism and trying to stay true.
Notes
This is a record of how I think, decide, and adapt during the last third of my life.
Not to prove anything. Not to optimize endlessly. Not to perform.
Just to notice what matters, while I still have time to learn from it.
If I’m lucky, this becomes a long shelf of small, honest entries: quiet evidence of a life lived with attention.
- How did my day start out?
- What am I going to do today?
- Did I accomplish my do-every-day goals?
- What did I learn today?
