Sometimes my work affords me opportunities to travel to places I really want to visit. That happened last weekend when I flew to Minnesota for a project and was able to squeeze some time in to visit the Crosby’s and the Rahr’s. Lesley and Stewart opened their beautiful home to me and graciously showed me around the city. Markell and Willie also hosted a wonderful reunion dinner where we got to relive all the great times we had when we all lived in Portland in the mid-90s. The best news of all is that this was just the first trip of many that will unfold over the next several months. Minnesota – here I come!
