My Reese’s pieces are home! Well, back in the US and on their way to North Carolina at least. We had a great call just now and the kids were so eager to tell me all about their adventures. My heart is pounding at the thought of seeing them soon.
Maybe it was a tough day at work, or maybe I’ve just been by myself too long, but I was feeling kinda down today and hearing their loving voices was just what I needed.

Not Italian, but still darn tasty! Peanut Butter cups and Hazelnuts
I’m back from LA and a really great trip with my family.
I stayed thru Sunday night, Father’s Day, and dad gave me a lift to LAX at 4:30am this morning from which I caught my flight and went straight to work.
It feels so long ago already, but just yesterday the bros and I were playing paddle tennis with dad and Irene by the beach in Venice. Rented some $5 paddles and played doubles in the blazing California heat. Paddle tennis rocks!
Later that eve, before digging into a kick-ass dinner that we all prepared, we gave dad a James Bond worthy bottle of single malt scotch whiskey and we heartily toasted with it.
We adjourned to dad’s billiards parlor to cap things off and by all measures it was the perfect finish to one of my favorite trips to LA yet.
Great day in Santa Barbara with these two!

Lots of M&A (Mergers and Acquisition) of late. Hopefully these shares from back in 2010 are worth more than the paper they are printed on.

Went paddleboarding in poulsbo and saw a lot of pelicans
I woke up this morning to news of a mass shooting in Orlando, Florida. The deadliest massacre in American history. Prior to opening fire the gunman declared his allegiance to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). The FBI are tearing their hair out. World leaders tweeting their hearts out. Loved ones crying their eyes out.
sad that Steph and the kids will be waking up to this as well. Half a world away yet no less close to home.
