Off the clock

The rest of me.

Same operating system, different domains. I like taking things apart — a brisket, an old truck, a training plan, a rules-lawyer encounter — and putting them back together better. Here’s where the spare hours go.

BBQ

Low and slow, by the numbers

Traeger Pro 575, serious about the craft. Temps, timing, and technique — not vibes. Barbecue rewards the same patience and measurement as a good training block.

Scouts

Vintage Scout restoration

I restore old International Harvester Scouts. Taking something neglected apart and putting it back together better is its own kind of satisfying.

D&D

Dorkin made it to level 20

Long-running tabletop campaign. My barbarian, Dorkin, went all the way to level 20 and the final boss. Worth its own paragraph.

The Bar

A mobile bar trailer

A side venture I co-own as managing member — a mobile bar trailer running events on a dry-hire model.
