San Diego, CA - Hancock, MI - Bozeman, MT

( Life, etc. and Travel )

During the past week I have been in San Diego, Minneapolis, Hancock Michigan and now Bozeman Montana - I feel worn out after all that travel, but invigorated from what I was able to accomplish last week.
I realized a long time ago to stop trying to be ‘balanced’ and just go after life with reckless […]

Washington, DC, USA

( Life, etc. and Travel )

In Washington, DC this weekend for a meeting and then back home to Minneapolis tonight.  I used to live here in Washington and every time I come back I am reminded how this is my kind of town.  Not unlike Chicago, I just love this city.  There is enough hustle and bustle for me, but […]

Bozeman, Montana, USA

( Travel )

Danielle and I are hanging out this week at our new condo in Bozeman, Montana.  We love Bozeman.  We have been hiking, golfing, walking, eating, shopping (outfitting a new condo is not as easy as it looks on the internet) and more.  The air here is so clear.  The mountains are visible anyway you look.  […]

This is a picture from our day at Big Sky Ski resort last Saturday.  What a great day of carving some fun turns.

Updates / Back from Montana

( Life, etc. and Travel )

As my friend Mark Van Steenwyk noted a while back, it is odd to tell people you are not blogging much lately, or sorry for not blogging, etc.  So I won’t do that to all of you faithful readers and friends.  What I will do is tell you what an epic week I had while […]

Travel Updates

( Life, etc. and Travel )

I am back to traveling quite a bit lately - I just returned from a meeting in San Diego, California and was able to spend some time with some friends over dinner.  That was a nice bonus to my business trip.  This weekend I am headed to Orlando, Florida to work with a mentoring group […]

Dispactches from Kauai; Chapter 3

( Travel )

A forced slowdown was in order the past two days after I sprained my ankle surfing near Poipu Beach.  I was having little problem getting up on the surfboard, my problem came getting off of it in the shallow water.  I heard a crack in my ankle when I fell off that sounded like the […]

Dispatches from Kauai; Chapter 2

( Travel )

The past two days have been a combination of a whirlwind and slowdown on vacation.  I have been able to snorkel, golf (twice - once at Wailua Golf Course and once at the Pukea Golf Course), run, hike, swim, and generally enjoy the 82 degree temperatures Kauai has to offer.
Above the picture really sums up […]

Dispatches from Kauai; Chapter 1

( Travel )

Arrived in Kauai, Hawaii yesterday after a long day of travel. The time change is 5 hours I think so when we got here it was late for our time -by the time we went to bed we had been up for 24 hours straight. Woke up at a normal time 6:00 am, so our […]

Pearl Jam & The Red Hot Chili Peppers

( Life, etc. and Travel )

Since I switched over to Voxtropolis I have not been updating much on what I am reading or listening to these days. There was an easy to use feature on Xanga that allowed me to do that. So, I now realize that I will just have to do the udpating in my posts. […]
