Wrapping things up, opening new packages

Been a while since I posted, mostly due to getting our house ready to put on the market (which happened yesterday), doing a bunch of summer travel planning and a couple of larger consulting contracts. I've also been setting up stuff at our new home in Virginia, doing things like starting cable and phone service, getting our move date set, etc. Wrapping up 30 years in Springfield feels a bit odd.

Today I leave for Pittsburgh and the beginning of a volunteer experience I've been looking forward to. I've been asked to join the board of directors of Goodwill Industries International, and, if all goes to plan, will be elected by their delegate assembly on Sunday. I've worked with many Goodwills over the years, and have always been impressed by their staff and board commitment to their mission. I'm looking forward to renewing old acquaintances, to meeting new and interesting people and , hopefully, to helping the cause.

I feel like I'm opening a present.....
