Hi world! Chris here. So, this week, I decided to focus on a topic I’ve never really discussed on my blog before. That topic is science. Recently, I stumbled across an old essay I wrote all about turning algae into renewable energy. I feel like this topic is pretty relevant today as the world is being pushed into finding sustainable energy sources. It’s also relevant … Continue reading Redhead Reviews: Algae: The New Energy
Hi world! Chris here. I decided to skip out on doing a Redhead Reviews this week because I was going through some old pictures to make a collage of my years at college and I came across all the pictures I took hiking this summer. Instead of going on an actual vacation (you know, because of the pandemic and what not) my parents and I … Continue reading Touring the Trails of the Blue Ridge Parkway
Hi world! Chris here. This Saturday, I woke up at 6 am to drive 4 hours for the same small cow sale that I stop by every year. “It’s not the sale I go for,” I tell people, “it’s the Christmas shopping with my mom afterwards.” For years now, this has remained mostly true. But for this year, I went with a blog-based motivation as … Continue reading To Be A Good Farmer
Hi world! Chris here. Please excuse any emotional outbursts this post because it’s about something very near and dear to me and my whole family. No matter where we are in our lives or in the world, we’re all Dixie Classic devotees at heart. It’s a fair that’s more like a second home because of the people, the memories, and literally everything else about it. … Continue reading Fall is for the Fair
Hi world! Chris here. And I have a lot to share, so I’m just going to ignore the fact that this is a whole week late and go ahead and get started talking about my time in Texas. Now, if you’ve never been to El Paso, let me tell you a little something about it. It’s really beautiful, but in a different way than anything … Continue reading I Almost Died in El Paso, Texas
Hi world! Chris here. Now that I’m entering a new chapter in life there are so many new things that make it really easy to get caught up in the here and now and make me worry about what else is coming in the future. I’ve got a whole new semester of classes I’ve just started and a year’s worth of work to take on … Continue reading Favorite Five
Hi world! Chris here. This week, I wanna take a moment to talk about the time I fell in love . . . with these cuties right here. These little guys are all residents of a brand-new coffee shop in downtown Winston-Salem, NC, called the Crooked Tail Cat Cafe. It has a very basic goal to sell coffee and save cats. And it’s my new … Continue reading Crooked Tail Cat Cafe
Hi world! Chris here. I’m back again to fill you in on the remainder of my week spent in Eagle River, Alaska! If you recall from last week, this post is all about Alaskan wildlife. Or, more specifically, the wildlife I interacted with while I was on vacation. Believe me, there’s a lot. As I stated in my first post, we arrived in Anchorage a … Continue reading Ask Me About Alaskan Animals
Here, There, and Back Again
