'About three years ago, Kendal started thinking about his love for food as a possible new direction in his life.  He sold pizza on the side, and began to seek out manufacturers who sold pizza ovens on trailers.

He also watched his photo career vanish, his income evaporate with pay cuts and company-forced furloughs.

“I needed something else in my life.  McClatchy (parent company of the Bellingham paper) began cutting everywhere. The food thing became by Plan B.  I figured as photo editor I was a target.  I saw the writing on the wall,” he said of his decision to leave newspapers.
