If anyone would like to come visit in Seattle for a week, you are more than welcome to stay at my place. I should have a couple of spare rooms come summer time. I’ve spent some good times with the Hash House Harriers here in Seattle too. This is another group that I am involved with, that I can go almost anywhere in the world and meet up with Hashers in that city. Often times I will know someone from that city, that I had met traveling. We had an Inter-America’s Hash in Toronto this year with a 1000 plus people from mostly North America. I’ve made it back to Savannah once this year for the GA/FL Hash House Harrier event. Was a great time to get back and see everyone again. This year also included my annual ride to Sturgis on my bike. This time my ride was only about 2-1/2 days getting there thru WA, Idaho Panhandle and Montana before getting to South Dakota. I met up with Mike Walker in Sturgis, a friend from Wichita when I worked there. We rode to Sturgis, the first year I went in ’99. I had my 20th year High School reunion this year too!! Shit, I really am starting to reach middle age! How did that happen? I traveled a little bit inside the US this summer too. Went to DC a couple of times, once for a fraternity board meeting and once for a hashing event. Kansas City for a fraternity conference and back to Fairbanks for the chartering of the fraternity group that I mentioned about in Feb. Work is keeping me busy. While I work mechanical design, I go to work when I want, and for the most part picking my own hours. When I start working the operations side of the airplane, I will be on specific hours, as it has been at all of the other companies. That is always nice to have that flexibility. Here’s to keeping in better touch & a Happy New Year to you for ’06, Tony 740 N 83rd St Seattle WA 98103 912.713.3511 mobile 206.544.1282 office |
