Got Milk? — by Guest Dad Ryan Wright
Today is Saturday. Perfect weather. A good day for a run.
But first, some M.I.L.K.
M.I.L.K. (Moments of Intimacy Laughter & Kinship)
Erin & I first saw this stunning photography collection outside the Sydney Opera House. We've been fans of them ever since. M.I.L.K began as a global photography competition in search of "extraordinary and geographically diverse images portraying humanity’s Moments of Intimacy, Laughter and Kinship." 17,000 photographers, both amateur and professional, participated from 164 countries. The winners' photos have been published in three books and continue to be exhibited across the globe:
When we first saw this exhibition, we were so moved that we bought 12 copies of each book to give to family and friends. The complete work captures every detail of the beauty of real-life. It's really photography at its best.
And now... for the run:
My 3 favorite running/work-out songs - "Right Here, Right Now" by Fat Boy Slim, "Belsunce Breakdown" by Bouga & "Jump Around" by House of Pain (I've mixed them together below with my morning workout routine):
(Erin is the marathon runner in our family so her favorites may have more credibility: "Chocolate" by Snow Patrol, "Somewhere Only We Know" by Keane & "Starry Eyed Surprise" by Paul Oakenfeld)

Ryan - thanks for all your inspiration this week! It has been fulfilling to my creative soul to read your postings. By the way, that was the perfect way to end your week with that very manly video. Your manhood has been totally reclaimed. :) Please do come again!
I too LOVE the M.I.L.K exhibit! I first saw it in London, and I too was truly moved. Since then, I have tried to locate copies of the books and haven't been able to find any -- do you know where they might be sold?
omygosh House Of Pain. I admit that's in my cd collection, but it always makes me blush cos it's out of place with all my indie and ska. makes you move, though, good pick.
What a beautiful idea to compose these books from all over the world! We're moving in August back to Seattle and I think they'd be perfect on the living room coffee table (whenever I find the perfect coffee table --- still searching). Thanks for giving me something inspiring to look forward to!
Ryan, i would love a work out cd. When you have the time... k from boise
Hey Ryan, Happy Father's day to you and all the dads around the world.
