In reply to Manton: If the iPhone SE…
In reply to Manton: If the iPhone SE ends up with a 6 or 6+ quality camera in it I’ll likely be switching to it late summer. But the 10” iPad still feels perfect to me. Side note: I look forward to when Barley 2.0 supports Web Mentions so that Manton would have been notified…

Open source retreats
Krithika Muthukumar on the Stripe blog: This January, we invited three developers to come work on open-source projects full-time at Stripe. We specifically chose projects for this Open-Source Retreat that we felt would have deep impact in a variety of different areas. Stripe has done this for several years. I’m very jealous of it. If…

Audio! Published something new on my site. A bit of audio. This first one is just a test that I ended up publishing. Feedback welcome. Also, I plan to have an embedded player once switched to Barley 2.0.

Photo stats and observations
As I’ve been moving my photos from Picturelife into Photos for OS X over the passed two weeks I’ve run across some interesting observations so I thought I’d jot them down. ![](http://static.public.getbarley.com/colin.getbarley.com/barley-media-uploads/2016/3/Screenshot 2016-03-11 07.19.29-1457698947518.png) Here are some statistics in no particular order: We take a lot of photos in October, August, and June. This is…

First paddle of 2016
The call of the wild is strong. I’ve been working from home this week as we’ve decided to close our shared office space in Scranton. Nice weather pulls me outdoors. When I’m working downtown, and the weather is above freezing, I am pulled towards going for a short jaunt to shoot photos of local buildings.…

Kayaking in Back Bay, Sandbridge, Virginia
In late-September Eliza and I drove to Sandbridge, Virginia for two weeks with a bunch of friends, food, beer, and of course the kayaks. The first week was a wet, raining, windy disgusting mess. But that didn’t stop my niece from Florida, Leyana, and I from getting out and doing some paddling in the rain.…

I’m sad that White Oak Pond is being drained
Above: A panorama I took at White Oak Pond on October 20, 2015. My favorite place to paddle within 25 minutes of my front door is White Oak Pond in Waymart, PA. And now, due to the dam in the area being structurally unsound and having no budget to fix it, it is being drained.…

Kayaking Dunn Pond in September
I shared a few photos from my paddle in August and I plan on sharing some from paddles in October, November, and December. Hold me to it. I don’t mind getting cold to catalog how the pond changes over the next few months this fall. Here are a few photos from last Friday, September 11th.…

Photos from NEPA BlogCon 2015
To date I’ve been typing NEPA BlogCon as NEPABlogcon — the organizers of the event can please accept my deepest apologies. I’ve gone back and fixed my mistake. This past weekend’s event was very well attended, executed, staffed, and organized. Kudos to all that volunteers to make the event go smoothly. Here are a few…

The unfollow Q&A
Since I’ve covered this topic in several sprawling posts here on my blog I wanted a single place to link to about why I unsubscribe from all feeds and unfollow nearly all Twitter accounts a few times a year. Here are some questions I’ve gotten about it. Why go through all of the trouble? Doesn’t it…

Fire with friends
A few times a year a few of our friends get together, start a fire in a field, set off a few fireworks, and enjoy each other’s company. Here are a few photos from the last two fires.

Paddling White Oak Pond in July
Last paddling season I managed to squeeze a paddle in a few times per week. Perhaps I did this because it was new to me (last year was my first time kayaking) and I didn’t mind folding and unfolding the Oru 8 times a week. This season I’ve gotten out a little less so as…

Picking up a second kayak
A few weeks ago a friend told us he was willing to part with his kayak. I knew I wanted it immediately because I knew it was only a year old, I knew how much it was worth, and he was parting with it for a very fair price. However, I hadn’t yet gotten cross…

Sandbridge Virginia 2014
In less than a month we’ll be heading back to Sandbridge, VA for a little getaway. We don’t normally go to the same location back-to-back for vacations but we had a great time last year and we hope to repeat it. Here are a few photos from the GoPro from last year. I know, I…

Kayaking Quaker Lake and Lake Carey
Last weekend my friend Eric and I went paddling around Quaker Lake and Lake Carey; each in northeastern PA pretty close to the New York border and each equally different. Quaker Lake is a beautifully clear glacial lake that does not allow speed boats or jet skis and has some really well kept and manicure homes…

Floating down the Delaware
Eliza and a few friends floated down the Delaware River in tubes so I joined them by paddling around with the yak.

Brooklyn PA
Eliza and I visited with a few friends in Brooklyn PA a month or so ago. Nice place to go for a walk but man oh man there were a lot of dead things on the road.

Kayaking Dunn Pond
I shared a photo on Instagram/Facebook of a recent paddle on White Oak Pond and within seconds a perfect stranger suggested I paddle Dunn Pond due to its similarities. I love White Oak Pond so the first opportunity I had I went to paddle Dunn Pond. I’m glad I did. I ended up shooting more…
