...just haven't figure out where that is yet. Well the fun continues, a busy week at home and office. At work we had a "Employee Appreciation Picnic" ("cookout" in my book) Friday at noon. I was involved in doing some of the graphics for banners, etc., there was a baseball theme. Our office administrator, Karen, is very good at "getting it done", no manner what it is so amongst everything else she has to handle she pulls this cookout together like no one's business. Then there was a special angle to the event which helped keep me busy. Our office manager, Joe, reached his 20th anniversary with the company. To commemorate the milestone Karen and Kathy, one of our engineers, wanted to put something special together to present to him at the cookout. What they came up with was a parody of sorts using a display poster I did for a engineering award we won recently. Photos were switched out and replaced by pictures of the staff in our office and two smaller ones that Joe also is responsible for. Also used were his new employee photo compared with a silly one of him from a time much latter on which used a engineering analogy - it makes sense to us in the office but I won't glaze your eyes over with describing it here. I took the picture of our office staff, those who were in at the time. That's me, fifth person from the left in the back...I added myself in afterwards using Photoshop and a picture I had someone else take of me after the crowd broke up.
I kept the photo small here as this is a public blog, I think people from my office should have anonymity. The presentation went over very well as did the cookout, burgers and hotdogs, there was a raffle of gift certificates and company hats, travel mugs, and waterbottles. One of our engineer's received a CEO Award for service to a client above and beyond expectations.
Ian is home this weekend as Taylor's mom picked her up at her college to come home for the
long weekend and they picked up Ian as well. Things continue to go well for him, He's very involved in his classes, he has joined the Woodsmen Club which competes with other colleges in axe and wood sawing skills. He has also joined the Wildlife/Forestry Club. He'll be home again next weekend to participate in the Camporee. Taylor was over for supper tonight and we watched a movie, King Arthur starring Clive Owen. Pretty good, much different than what you might expect, 2 hours and 17 minutes.
