YAHOO! Craig's back! Craig had a work retreat/seminars in Portland Thur-Sat last week. It was fun for him to call to tell me the stories of how the day went. The first day they reserved a whole hour before dinner for social hour. Craig said he was the only one not drinking! But no one said anything to him or acted different to him. He was able to meet a lot of people including people working in Oregon offices and Wisconsin. He also was put in a situation somehow with the CEO Jack and was able to talk himself up about his seismic background, which will for sure help us get back out west. Another day he called because they gave everyone iPad's. He has no idea why he would need one. So he's decided over the weekend to sell it. If anyone is interested?....it's 64gb and retails on Wal-Mart.com for $699---he said he'd sale it for $650. Also he went to a hockey game with a bunch of them, which everyone was drinking again, then after the game about 15 of them walked over to the bar while Craig walked back to his hotel room and called his sweet wifey :) It's fun to hear his stories. Overall, it was a good weekend for him to learn, get to know people, and put his name out in the company. He came back late Saturday afternoon and we were so excited he was back! Jaycee missed him and would yell Dad and look for him. I didn't realize she would comprehend him being gone. Our weekend ended yesterday with Stake Conference in Bangor, turkey meat loaf that I wanted to puke on (scratch that recipe!), and watching Amazing Race. I'm counting down the days...35 days...I can't believe it's coming so fast! Yahoo!~
