More Rally Planning

2010 will be the year of my Gumball like rally, that I’ve previous talked about.

  • 3 days long, probably Saturday to Monday so we don’t have to deal with Friday traffic.
  • Limited to 6 cars
  • One driver and one passenger per car

There’s are two possible routes.  The first is 560 miles out to Tom’s Place on 395, over the amazing Sonora pass.

2008 on balance

This has been a year of ups, downs and the unexpected

2008 - what a year!

2008 - what a year!

Good

  • Got engaged to Nikki
  • Went to 3 weddings (Chicago, Tahoe & Palo Alto)
  • My Dad made it through a health scare and operation
  • Got a new car, Z4 Coupe
  • The country I live in is getting an good present at last

Meh

  • Didn’t get in any Snowboarding
  • Maintained the same weight for another year (lower would have pushed this to ‘Good’)
  • Transitive, my old company, got bought by IBM but it didn’t make me rich or even wealthy

Not do good

  • My Grandma died (Dec 9th)
  • Investments in stock too a tumble
  • Can’t sell either my house in England
