Welcome to 21st Century Dad, a newsletter about the dumb things dads do and how dadding looks a little different in the 21st century than it did when I was growing up in the 80s and 90s.
I’ll try to publish something every Friday. Usually it’ll be a story about my life as a working dad. Sometimes it’ll be stories about my dad, who was not a working “dad” but more of just a “working” person who had kids.
I will also share stories from a 4 month road trip my wife and I took with our 3 and 5 year old on from March 2021 - July 2021. We visited 10 states, 8 national parks, drove nearly 10,000 miles, and saw Buffaloes humping in Yellowstone. My wife and I enjoyed that last part quite a lot. The kids were traumatized.
Now that I think about it, maybe I’ll share other things too. Maybe this newsletter will become like my internet brain. I’ll share recipes and ebike tips and DATABASES OF KNOWLEDGE!
Or maybe I’ll just stick to dad stories. We’ll see.
