Getting the Blog off the Ground

I've decided the enter the Blog world, sharing some of my thoughts, feelings, and wonderful adventures. I've realized that I miss writing, and all of a sudden I have a lot of stuff to write about. So, I am going to spend a little less time on the couch watching another rerun of House Hunters, and going to spend a little more time putting my thoughts on paper (or in the modern world on the web).

My first obstacle was coming up with a name for the blog. My wife had this same dilemma, and creatively came up with Raining Cats and Dawgs, which is a fun play on our household being a divided house (Washington State University and University of Washington). So, I chose Jeff's Journey, which sounds simple enough, but has a fun story behind it.

Ever since high school, I've been captivated by the Hero's Journey, and figured this would be the perfect tie-in to the adventures and random thoughts I'll be blogging about.

So, what will be on this blog? I will write about weekend runs with my wife and son, Charlie, around the Puget Sound region. I'll write about some of the best craft beer in the world. You'll find out that I not only work in baseball, but have a passion for the numbers that often define the minutia of the game. I may even take a walk down memory lane and write about some of my past adventures that I didn't get a chance to share.

I am still trying to figure out the best presentation and working through the Blogger software, but excited to sit down on a semi-regular basis and share a little about myself. I home you enjoy Jeff's Journey!
