I go off on tangents talking about what interests me. My wife calls moments – Ricky rants.

A wonderful oil painting of me doing what I love. Writing nonsense and doing no proof-reading because of my welding helmet I refuse to take off.
Its easy to forget to stop and take a picture. I’ve been better and have a lot of pictures to share. The difficulty now is sitting down and writing about the work I’ve done. I don’t exaggerate when saying that I am doing something with metal six days a week. More often than not its all seven. My posting and documentation of that work, well that is a different matter. I’ve got more to share than time to write about it.
The tiniest of bummers is my passion is building and creating. The deeper I get into running a business the more I am taken from that action. I don’t mean that as a complaint, just a solemn fact. I will at some point change how I deliver information as I learn and grow. For now this is it.
From the desk of Ricky Phillips, and the servers of rlphillips.com. Welcome to Ricky Rants.
