The last five days

As I sit here now in my new house in San Francisco, looking out of the huge windows over the southern San Fran landscape, it all just feels surreal. To think that a week ago I was in Lincoln, Nebraska in the snow and cold. I just can't believe all the turns that life throws at us daily. From meeting new people, to new environments. It has caused me to reinvent and refine myself.

2000 miles and three days later, I moved all my worldly possessions which consists of everything I need daily (which fits in a Subaru) and all my hobbies and toys (surfboards, snowboards, mtn bike, motorcycle, golf clubs, shotguns, rock climbing gear, camping equipment) to which I am always adding that I put in a Uhaul truck. I stopped overnight in Salt Lake City, to visit with an old friend Brandon Oquendo, who I hadn't seen since high school. He owns a painting franchise and is also doing real estate investing management as well. A very motivated guy and I see big things in his future. It was great to sit down over a couple beers and talk strategies and entaprenual approaches to ideas.

I came up with no job, and a couple leads... with the goal of living with two of my best friends for the "golden years" of our young lives. 12 hours after being here I got a job offer to work as an engineer doing materials inspection and construction inspection. I still need a bed, the air mattress isn't the greatest, nor is the couch.

I have a couple more interviews lined up....I think this will be a fun, challenging, and memorable year...I can't wait!
