Yesterday I helped organize a fantastic potluck Seder for the second night of Passover. There were around 50 attendees and it was quite a bit of work to set up, but I think everyone enjoyed it so the principle goal was accomplished. Potlucks are always fun since there is always so much variety of food…

West Tiger Mountain
Today I hiked up Tiger Mountain from the Highline Parking lot on the Tradition Plateau. It took about 40 minutes to get on top of West Tiger One. I then continued on to West Tiger 2 and looped back to West Tiger One. At the bottom, I walked around Tradition Lake to up the…
Costco Visit!
Yes, any visit to Costco Wholesale is worth mentioning in the title of an entry. It was an especially nice to visit my “home” Costco location in Issaquah, which also serves as the corporate headquarters (located about 8 minutes from my house in Sammamish). One of those in-house positions at Costco has my name written…
Planet Earth Show
With temperatures in the upper 50’s and a nice sunshine, it was a nice day to be outside working in the garden in Sammamish. First, I mowed the lawn, which was literally a foot high in some spots. Then I did some last minute pruning on some fruit trees. Next, I cut back the sticker…
Sammamish Spring Break

Business Plan
Today my group turned in our Business Plan for Environmental Entrepreneurship, the class at the Stanford Business School I took last semester. It was a great course and I think the final product is great. What is great about our plan is that it will be used in the real world by a real start-up…
Mini Weekend
It sure was nice to not have any class today – mini weekend! It’s also going to be sweet to have Wednesday through Friday afternoons off! I’ve put in so many hours into my research project for Venture Capital already, but I will use the free time to produce an excellent paper – at least…
Great games
I was incredibly lazy on Saturday, spending the majority of the day watching March Madness NCAA basketball games. At the least the games were really good with many of the contests going into overtime. My bracket basically sucks this year, but I do it for fun! I remember the good days when I won a…
