News

I don't know how many people still log onto this antiquated blog...However if there are still curious eyes out there here is an update.

In February of this year the restaurant in Durango that I worked at burned to the ground. It was quite the shock. One minute you are serving kabobs and the next you are on the sidewalk wondering when they are going to get rid of the smoke so you can finish your shift. Then your patience turns to worry as the smoke becomes an inferno and then you realize...you are out of a job! They are rebuilding it but it will still be quite some time before it reopens.

Fortunately some leads I been following turned into an editing position soon after the fire. I now work for an Environmental Consultant firm and I'm learning a ton every day.

I have now made Durango my home...I miss Portland but have come to love the mountain air and sunshine. I'm planning a trip to POrtland next month so it will be nice to catch up with family and old friends. Cheers!
