Charging as a Tesla driver has always been pretty straightforward.

As a Tesla Model Y owner, I am always on the lookout for the latest and greatest gadgets and accessories to enhance my driving experience and personalize my car.

Tesla is in a fantastic position in the market, recently lower the cost of it’s cars and offering several great options at competitive price points that are bringing more and more buyers to the Model 3, Y, and even S and X.

Everyone knows that kids are incredibly resilient and can be very elastic with adapting to changes and learning, but recently my kids have really demonstrated to me just how much they learn and how fast they can pick things up.

Kids are hell on a car.

For the last several years, owning an Electric Vehicle has been about as good as it can get.

I’m sitting in our apartment in Bergen, Norway and out the window, parked on the street, I can see a full range of electric cars.

It’s been almost two months since I last posted a blog.

In 2019, I had just started working in New York City again, reducing my driving from around 60 miles a day to under 5.

Thanks to COVID, I’ve spent a lot of time with my youngest son over the last two weeks.

So picture this.

There are simply too many interesting electric car options now, and all of them have way too long of a wait.

For years, I’ve been dreaming of the perfect family ski trip.

Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise; there’s no right or wrong way to parent.

My boys take hockey lessons and swim lessons weekly and we ski every single weekend.

Everyone understands that the past two years of the COVID pandemic have been tough on parents.

Back in 2019, a year before COVID turned the world on its head and before the EV renaissance kicked into high gear, I took my then six month old Tesla Model 3 (standard range) up to Vermont for our annual guys’ ski trip.

My heart is heavy this week with the news coming out of Ukraine.

Over Presidents’ Day Weekend, we took a family trip to Stowe, Vermont to meet up with our friends and take in some winter activities with our kids.

Two years into the pandemic, and it feels like despite, or maybe because of the Omicron wave, we’re just giving up on protecting the kids and it has a huge toll on parents.

When The Long Way Up first came out on Apple TV a year or so ago, I noted that it looked interesting, but passed it over because I wasn’t very interested in motorcycles.

Now, I’m not a big one for New Year’s Resolutions or even one to put too much stock in one yar being all that different from the preceding one, but I do think that a new year means it’s a good time to look forward to the upcoming year and what might be co…

I have been taking the twins skiing since they were three and a half years old.

Another Christmas, another year of canceled plans and school anxiety.

My second ever marathon, and I think my worst one, was the Philadelphia Marathon in 2015.

Ever since the pandemic started, we’ve been waiting and hoping that the next thing would be enough to get us “back to normal”.

Yes, it can be done.

I’ve been a proud Tesla Model 3 owner for 2.5 years, but have followed the company long before that.

I’m typing this on what is unquestionably the best computer I’ve ever used, and the one I’ve quickly come to prefer over just about every other device in our home.

Yes, that’s a Justin Bieber reference and yes, it’s too late now to say sorry.

Somewhere between my childhood and my kids’, I forgot how much fun a family camping trip can be.

Our kids have been in pre-school since they were six months old.

For as many things as the pandemic took from us like traveling and in person events, it did provide an incredible transformative opportunity for us to reimagine work and rethink some of the basic foundations of how we get things done.

I’ve had my new iPhone 13 less than a month now, but I absolutely love it so far.

My last flight was in January of 2020 to Seattle for work.

At the start of the year, I made a resolution to switch at least the majority of my diet to vegetarian, and even try to make vegan choices as often as possible.

With this week’s news that Pfizer’s vaccination trials on kids 5-11 has shown positive results and that they will request FDA emergency approval soon, there is finally some cause for optimism for parents after a long year and a half.

The Jersey Shore has a lot of connotations, mostly negative ones about clubs and wild night life.

A decade ago, I had only just recently been married, bought a house, and got our dog together.

We moved to Florham Park less than six months ago, and yet I feel like I already know more about the area and the history of the town better than I did after ten years in Wanaque.

When we moved, I had no idea that we would be completely changing our lifestyle thanks to an actual community around us.

It’s become impossible to ignore some of the worst aspects of the olympics, like the arbitrary and inconsistently enforced rules, the blatant nationalism it encourages, and the attempt to silence athletes voices while doing absolutely nothing about rampant

It was supposed to be a hot vax summer, but with the Delta variant spreading throughout the country and cases spiking again, it looks like this summer may have been an outlier and this winter will feel just like last year.

I’m sitting on a Coach bus at 100% capacity with about 50 other humans at 8:20 in the morning at the gray entrance to one of the barrels of the Lincoln Tunnel when the bus was supposed to be in New York City by 8:00 and it feels like the walls of the tunn…

I’m in a bit of a writer’s block phase right now.

Last week’s post seemed pretty popular, so here I am again with an update on some stuff we did as a family this weekend.
