Emails out of nowhere generally are spam

Glacier National Park
September 27, 2017…taken from inside rental car. Amazing.

 

Emails out of nowhere generally are spam.

And then there are ones that bring opportunity.

Like the one yesterday, with the potential for a keynote speech – but it conflicts with one of 2018’s five Glacier writing trips.

By the way, this is the third consecutive Summer i’ve not taken speaking engagements from May 30 – September 30.

And there’s an exception to literally every rule, except death and taxes.

Back to the email, the upside is it’s in the middle of a 10-day trip and a three-day break in the middle is doable.

The client saw me two months ago and liked what he saw.

Now he’s interested in bringing it to his annual global conference in Atlanta.

The call is in 3.5 hours.

Wish me luck.

Life’s been harder, and better, than i dreamt

Back from the lunch hike.

A picture perfect day at Logan Pass Visitors Center.

Sparse crowds up here are rare, until September.

Interesting fact.

Seems so long ago.

So yeah, in this photo, i’m thinking this may be my last view of Logan Pass.

And this may also be the last time i see Highline Trail and Clements Mountain.

Time to leave Logan pass.

Car is still in park, but just for this photo.

Turned off Highway 89 to drive past Two Medicine one last time. It’s also a short cut to Apgar.

Found a way to get closer.

Better lighting than yesterday as well.

Sunset is behind me, which allows for views like this one. Village Inn on right shore.

What a marvel the past three days have been.

Three.

Short.

Days.

Wonderful days.

Working days.

Remarkably blessed and fruitful days.

All the hard work that began (even months before i officially incorporated a business), is yielding a steady harvest of positive benefits for clients and owner.

It’s been harder, and better, than i dreamt.

Put in place to discourage “risk taking and poor judgment”

Disney Keynote Speakers
The obvious question, to me, is, “Why not?”

 

Disney Keynote Speakers
If you could but didn’t, “Why not?”

 

Disney Keynote Speakers
Doesn’t take much to go the extra inch.

 

Disney Keynote Speakers
These props are so light weight.

 

Disney Keynote Speakers
i don’t carry very much, but i am intentional about what i always carry.

The bead jar never travels. Jack the Bear has been around the world.

Lower left hand corner. Lucky photo.

 

Did I mention that i did the same group shot at Hidden Lake Overlook.

A couple embraced me when i asked them, “Would you mind taking a few photos?”

It was fun bending the rules, to work within the parameters the National Park Service put in place to discourage “risk taking and poor judgment”.

i colored outside the lines by going a few feet off the trail to take the Disney Character photos. It felt 100% safe.

Hoping to hear from multiple local business contacts today.

Added another one to a growing list of possibilities, yesterday on the flight from Orlando to Denver.

Spoiler alert. Heard from one five hours ago in St Mary, which was the last time i had internet.

Typing today’s posts on the Notes app.

My work literally never feels like work.
