Next Adventure

It's been awhile since I've spent any amount of time wandering around the other coast. Since I've got some time on my hands and I can't think of any reason not to go look up some old friends out there, I've started planning a little bike ride for the month of April. Springtime along the Atlantic.

If you're anywhere along the route below and will be around in April, drop me a line. I'd love to see you and catch up.

If you've got a bicycle, a sleeping bag, some rain gear and some free time and you'd like to join in on a little springtime ride along the Atlantic - an hour, a day, a week... hey, why not? there's no time like the present - just get in touch.

the last 6 months


When I got back from Alaska I started a cool new job managing the design and construction of new resorts and hotels for a national resort hotel company. I started working with the design teams on new resort on the Oregon coast, a new downtown resort in Portland while new deals were getting underway in Mazatlan, Puerta Vallarta, and Alaska. I got to travel alot up and down the west coast. It was awesome.

And then the credit market crashed and the new deals got cancelled. Then the projects under design were put on hold. And then construction stopped on works underway. Between October and December going to work got a lot less interesting and ultimately began to resemble a long stint of in-school suspension. Yawn. At the end of December our office was closed and I am now officially relieved from the Rat Race.

The good news is, I made my financial goal for the year which will allow me to slack off for a while and plan my next adventure.

Happy New Year!
