This is the home of tubridy.net and my blog

I have owned this domain since 1998. I use it to record my experiences with my dog, Jake:

When we are on an Excellent Adventure, I regularly post about the recent activity. Otherwise, it’s stuff that interests me andβ€”of courseβ€”pictures of my family!

We started traveling in our RV, the Starship Excellent Adventure, in 2021.

So far, we have traveled over 26,000 miles and spent about half a year on the road. We have visited national parks and other scenic locations on the West Coast, Rockies, Southwest, and Appalachians. Our next trip will take us into the Midwest.

Most Excellent!

I developed an interest in photography in college. I have owned numerous cameras, including underwater gear. I currently shoot an Olympus OM-D E-M5III (boy, that’s a mouthful!) and an iPhone 17 (or there about!).

So far, I’ve made it to about 40 countries and 48 states.

This interest also extended to another pastime for exploring the underwater realm.

I have had a lifelong passion for music and woodworking that I enjoy in retirement. I live with my pup Jake on Florida’s Space Coast. I continue my father’s work on the Family genealogy.

I am always looking for new content to add as I surf the space-time continuum. This is, after all, my legacy!

My rides through the years started with the VW Beetle – which I learned to drive on – to the Starship Excellent Adventure!

Just This Guy

I started my first website as a hobby using the notorious Microsoft FrontPage in the late 1990s. I studied web design at Emory in the late 2000s and became proficient in programming and graphic skills. I eventually did it full-time when I contracted for IBM in the 2010s. I retired at the end of 2019 as a User Experience (UX) Designer who spent over 40 years working in high tech.

This is a hobby for me now. I view it as my legacy since I leave no one behind at the end of the day. You can find other stuff I am interested in or places I have traveled on this site. I will continue to add more until I can’t do it anymore.

Cheers, Jake and Eddie
