I apologize to everyone for disappearing from my blog, but things got busy quite fast!

 

I left off back in October with a motorcycle trip across the great plains and against some odd weather.  Turns out that one of the times I was riding, I left a saddlebag open and lost a few shirts and tings.  No big deal.. but sad nonetheless.

I went back to work at Colorado Northwestern Community College to help fill the gaps and put out some fires in the Facilities and Business categories of the college.  There was a controlled maintenance project that had one heck of a screwy design so cost were quickly overrun.  That mess was cleaned up, though not a fun mess to clean at time.  I managed to get the roofer and the contractor to reduce costs to the college, so I saved us about $13,000 in all.  I tried to get the Architect to toss in, but they refused.  Oh well, it was worth a shot.

I do have to say this.  The support of the staff and faculty at CNCC were amazing.  I’ll write some more tomorrow. I need to get back in the habit of a post a day.

 

As for a picture of the day… uh… Happy Valentine’s Day!
