About
What this is
This is a personal blog about Patrick and Mary Teague. Patrick was born and raised in Ojai, CA where we currently reside with our two dogs Ash and Rosie.
Who we are
Mary is a Biologist for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Patrick is a technologist, investor, and consultant.
What we're into
We are both interested in long-distance running (Mary is an ultra-marathoner), gardening, fermentation (Patrick started a fermented hot sauce business), public service, travel, music, musing, home improvement, and of course our dogs!
Why Just Build?
Just build is Patrick's personal mantra. It means we should always be seeking to create; that you always continue to improve. Note, that doesn't mean we should be wasteful or destructive in our pursuit of improvement. There is much we can do to better ourselves at no expense to others by creating value.
