tNGE Trial 148

Happy 4th of July weekend! The 4th was never a huge holiday for most of my life because there was always a baseball game or tournament. After baseball, it's quickly become one of my favorite days of the year.

I love America and the values it stands for. It's the most fertile land on Earth for growing dreams. It may not be perfect, but it's the best country that has ever existed. I may be biased, but I consider myself extremely lucky to be born in the US of A.

Howdy. My name is Nick. I am on a mission to be the man my dog thinks I am and leave the world better than I found it. There's only one problem - nobody knows all the answers... and nobody ever will. But, we can all do our best to figure them out along the way. My hope in sharing my journey is to accelerate learning for us all so we can make the most of the precious time we have on this Earth.

I grew up in Central Illinois with my now wife surrounded by a loving family and a role model brother. My college years were spent playing baseball at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and making life-long friends. Now, my wife and I live in Central Indiana with our golden retriever, Luna. We spend our time working, exercising, dog training, playing intramural sports, and generally enjoying the beautiful life we live.
