About

Hanging out with Isaac on the Continental Divide.

Hi, I'm Doug Mahugh and this is my personal blog. You'll find here posts on photography, travel, Python, dogs, and other topics I find interesting, such as the coin-op game Defender, the Gathering of the Juggalos, hiking, and life in Butte, Montana.

As of July 2023, I've decided that 45 years of working for a living was enough and I am now retired. I worked at Google most recently, and Microsoft for a while before that, but the most satisfying and memorable part of my career was my years in the as Second City Software and the Defender adventures that took me from Seattle to Chicago.

You can also find me on Instagram (regulary), Flickr (as well as my dog photos Flickr), and YouTube (rarely). My dog Jamie (RIP) had a Facebook page that's still active and covers the daily life of his pack: Alice, Nancy and Isaac. I have a LinkedIn page for keeping in touch with work friends, and if you'd like to email me you can reach me at dmahugh on Gmail.
