I don’t know about you, but I am ready for the end of the Old year and the start of the New one. There have been just too many ups and downs these past twelve months— both politically and personally. I’ll leave the political ones to your imagination. Personally, as…
Yesterday, I moved my tractor out of my garage and into the new building. It is only temporary because we still have to have a protective coating placed on the floor. But it felt good to be able to walk around the garage without squeezing between the tractor and the…
It has, again, been too long since I last updated all of you. My apologies. I continue to work at my leadership coaching job, and there have been a couple of distractions, one of which continues. We were in Panama for our fifth time at Tropic Star Lodge. The fishing…
