We exited the bus and entered the streets in the midst of a parade, but unlike other parades this celebration was staged. Music, headdress, and confetti created a warm, festive scene. No doubt, local residents considered us their guests of honor. Such fanfare might not exist for everyone who enters San Martin Tilcajete, but after an […]

A Look Back for the Space Shuttle’s Last Launch
I watched the next to last shuttle launch on the internet. Amazing. It reminded me how I always wanted to see a launch live. To witness humanity blast to the heavens with my own eyes. And as a child, I didn’t just want to watch. No sir. I wanted to captain a crew. I wanted […]
Happy 4th of July! Fireworks from the Hudson River, NYC
Happy Birthday America! To aid our celebration, I attached a thirty second video of the fireworks finale from New York last year. The holiday sunset on the Hudson sparkled, but fireworks impressed, especially with this great view on pier 66 in Chelsea. Enjoy. Have a great 4th of July! Stay adventurous, Craig

It was more than just […]

The 2nd January Anniversary
Today I celebrate two years of freelance, or as I see it, two years of freedom. This January 5th marks two years since my last day employed in the corporate world. When I reflect back on the two years, I smile. And it’s a big smile. So now looking forward just like last year with […]
“Meet, Plan, Go” Pushes Career Breaks a Step Closer to the Tipping Point
She walked over and asked me, “What type of planning did you do to come back? So, how did you get a job when you returned?” Wow, great question I thought. This was just Meet, Plan, Go (not return). And to be honest, I never really thought about returning. But hey, I did return. And […]
