Wow, a month went by since my last post while I was planning to send friends and family a link to this blog (which still hasn't happened). It is all about execution
I'm in (not very exiting) Cincinnati, Ohio right now for PDS '06 to give a workshop on "Viewing Project Strategically: Key Project Management Choices in Software Product Development". Last weekend, however, we were in Florida at Key Largo for some nice relaxation and some awesome diving. We saw barracudas, sharks, a 400 pound grouper, turtles, eagle rays and unlimited sea fans. The most amazing creature was a ramora (shark sucker fish) that was approx. 4.5 feet.

Our next big diving trip is to Cocos Islands, Costa Rica: a lush uninhabited island 375 miles off Costa Rica's Pacific coast. The rocky pinnacles surrounding Cocos are beacons for big animals: schooling hammerheads, countless white-tip sharks, mantas, tuna and even whale sharks. We can't wait!
