About Doing 100

Doing 100 means a lot of things. It reminds me to do my best. It reminds me to ask for help and it reminds me to keep trying. Doing 100 is my mantra. When I was growing up, my grandfather was a constant in my life. He taught me anything I wanted to know. He encouraged my siblings and I no matter what we were doing. We knew we were doing a good job when he would smile and say, “You’re doing a hundred” in his smooth, comforting drawl. This blog is about the adventure of life, here and everywhere. It’s about creative exploits and funny stories. It’s about Doing 100.
