Greetings gents. Just popping in again for a weekly hello. I see you're still on XVIII, but getting closer now to the next one. I'm sure you'll be on the next one before I come round again.
I just mowed my lawn for the 2nd time this spring. I was stubborn, and refused to do it until April, even though it was starting to need it in March. So the first weekend, and now again. Blech. But DS13 came out and said he would do the back for me, which is good. For the past 10 years I've always done the 1st, 2nd and last mowing of the season and the boys do it the rest of the season. So he sees he's up to bat. I like it.
The camping with the Scouts is ramping up again. I haven't personally gone with them since last fall, but this weekend.

I'm looking forward to it. My boys have gone several times since my last time, but like other things, I took a little break from that aspect of Scouting. But it's time to get back out into a tent! My wife and DD are going with on a separate campout with their AHG Troop at the same time. It'll be a fun time for all. DD is so excited! This will be her 2nd campout in the woods - they do more overnighters at the church or in someone's backyard typically.
The business continues to move forward. Working with 2 different clients at the moment inching them closer to the go line. I've got about 6 in the hopper right now mulling itineraries. Went to an awesome trade show that came to town yesterday and met a lot of great people. The networking thing is coming together. I've joined two different networking groups locally as well, and the leads are starting to come in. I head to Ft Lauderdale on Tuesday for a CLIA convention, and from there up to WDW. It'll be nice to be in FL for 10 or is it 11 days? I think 10. I'm looking forward to that. Going to meet up with some of my WL Groupie friends while at WDW too. (I would have happily met Dads too... but none will be there the same time as me). The WDW portion has some Disney stuff that I need to do for the other gig that I do with/for Disney, but mostly I have no agenda. It'll be fun to just BE there, and of course to see first hand the progress on New Fantasyland.
And now it looks like a trip west in the cards again so I'll get to experience all of the fun new stuff getting ready to open at DCA this summer. I can't wait to experience Carsland! And Buena Vista Street! It all looks so amazing. I won't be able to be there for the grand opening June 15th, but that's okay - when I get there in September the crowds will have dissipated a tiny bit. I'm going to be combining that with a trade convention, and a little family time.
I'm still trying to figure out when I'm going to get to Tokyo DL. Looking at 2013 now, and will probably do Hong Kong DL in the same journey. DL Paris is still in talks as well, but I'll combine that with a river cruise. That's looking to be 2013 now as well. So we'll see how it all shapes up.
Anyway - just wanted to pop in quickly and say hello.
I have a meeting to run to, so have a great day guys. See ya on the next thread, I'm sure!
