For the last two years, I’ve been a full time student at UC Davis, working on an MBA degree. I’ve learned a ton, and really felt like it was worthwhile.

I’ve also been blessed to be surrounded by some of the coolest people I’ve ever had the privilege to associate with. Smart, funny, and generous folks. After next Saturday, people will be moving on, taking jobs all over the place. They’ll be leaders in their fields, and I can’t wait to hear where they all land, and the differences they’ll make. It’s been great. I’m going to miss everyone.

This last weekend, we had dis-orientation. Two years ago, we formed friendships during the school orientation, and this weekend celebrated those friendships with a big get together. Andrea was a hero, she put together a great weekend. Thanks Dre. Not everyone from my graduating class could make it, but everyone who was there had a great time.

We had nice condos in South Lake Tahoe. Friday night there was a dinner, followed with hanging out and poker for a few. Saturday people woke up, hung out. Some of us went hiking, other to the beach, a few to the casinos. Apparently a few went drinking. We all (ok, mostly all. Joe we missed you.) met up in the afternoon for a super fun lake cruise on the the Tahoe Queen. Drinks, Dinner and Dancing. It was a great time. Nothing fancy, nothing too crazy, just a bunch of cool people having a good time.

I didn’t want the weekend to end, but Sunday found people packing up and heading home. It was a great time. Thanks again to everyone who was there.

A neat place to visit, but very crowded. Get to the old street early if you can.

We’ve had a lot of rain on this trip, but yesterday it was approaching biblical levels. We had a river tracing day planned, but it was cancelled and it was pretty clear we needed to find something to do indoors. I had earmarked a stone

I haven’t done a ton of paddling this year, and taken even fewer picture, but these are a couple photos from a January trip down the NF American. It was a fun run, and a gorgeous day.

Last Saturday was my graduation ceremony for my MBA degree. It was a bit bittersweet. I was proud to be done, but sad that my friends would all be going their separate ways. I’ve loved the program, and made friends with some incredible folks. I’d

Not a lot of story to tell, but after graduation, I was looking for a short vacation. I met up with Chris, Bruce and Dennis in Southern California, and we loaded up Chris’ big old SUV, and drove into Baja. The surf was small, but
