There are Good Stories to be Shared.

Let’s Go Find Them Together…

The headlines might have you thinking the world is falling apart. I understand. But I’ve been around a long time, and I can tell you that most people are good, most people care, and remarkable things are happening all around us every single day. They just rarely make the news.

I’m Kurt. I’m a curious person by nature and an optimist by choice.

This blog and my social channels are built around one simple idea: go find the good. The interesting places, the delicious food, and the people and organizations doing remarkable things all around us. Sometimes that means sitting down with someone and learning about what they’ve built. Other times it means heading out, discovering something on my own, and bringing you along for the ride.

Life is short and too full to explore alone, so please join me. Follow along, send me your ideas, and tell me about the people and places I have not yet experienced. Most of the best stories I’ve ever come across started with someone saying, “You really have to check this out.”

Let’s find more of them together…
