This is the personal blog of Walt White. I am a Drafter/Designer living in Berks County, PA. I've got a fondness for Cigars, Photography, and Firearms. Take a look around and you may find something interesting regardless of how different your hobbies may be from my own.
Shortly after creating the Walt In PA blog, I wrote a piece on some plumbing trouble that I was struggling through. Since that post I have been lucky in that that I have only had to get involved in two other plumbing projects. Both projects, however, revolved around the same basic problem with my kitchen [...]
Have you ever had one of those days were you felt like something inside of you was just going to snap under stress? As I type this, I’m sitting in a room, alone, listening to soothing music on Slacker Radio. To go along with the music, I’ve got a CAO La Traviata burning in the [...]
I’ve got to admit up front, when it comes to certain things, I am a gullible guy. This really shines when taking into account Twitter and Facebook. There is part of me that says, “That really is the cigar manufacturer I know, not some paid employee acting the part” The more time I spend on [...]

On Thanksgiving night, I made a post on Twitter that announced my wife and I were expecting a child. I did this in an indirect way which many people did not pick up on. It felt kind of weird announcing it to the Twitter world so soon, so I wanted to do it in such [...]
In my home, my wife does all of the household shopping. I try not to get involved, because whenever I do, I tend to throw off her system. If I just happen to throw of her system, I’m to blame for any purchases that aren’t made, and should be, until she gets all caught back [...]
Twice per year, every year, I run into about a weeks worth of sleep problems. You may have guessed it, my problem revolves around our Fall-back and Spring-forward time changes that take effect. Most people don’t mind the time change in the fall because it is viewed as gaining an hour of sleep. While telling [...]
Growing up in the 80′s, I like to think that I grew up in the golden age of video games. Sure, the systems now can do some amazing stuff, but I have some very fond memories of the old 8 bit Nintendo Entertainment System games that I was introduced to as a child. As the [...]
