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,
