Pasadena

Changing of the Guard (pasadena@drinkingliberally.org)

Hey Howdy,

This will be my last email to the group. I will be heading up to Northern California at the beginning of April to work and learn eco-friendly, energy efficient, alternative building techniques.

In my place I leave behind a bunch of very cool people to carry the bag of power. Gary, Noreen, Matt, Christina and Michael will be sharing the responsibilities (such as they are) in hosting our weekly gatherings.

It has been a pleasure. I really want to thank Asa Hopkins for starting this chapter. Thanks to him, I have had the great pleasure of making many new friends, both within and outside the confines of our weekly gatherings. This group contains a lot of love and support and I wish to make a point of my deep appreciation for that.

I'm still out this week due to work, but will be back next week and until I leave in April. I'm looking forward to enjoying as many relaxing nights of controlled inebriation and jovial discourse as I can before I head up North.

The weather has been mild as of late. Perhaps tuesday will be a good one for the patio. You are cordially invited to come on down and find out.

Now that's a President. That's a Leader. That's an Administrator.

Come on down to Madeleine's to feel the glow. We got ourselves a proper President. Feels good, don't it?

P.S. I'll be out for the next few weeks, but someone will be there carrying the bag. :^)

Hey Howdy,

Sorry for taking so long to post the inauguration night pics. It's been a busy couple of weeks.

Here's the link to a photo album containing pics from our Inauguration Night Festivities.

It's been a nuanced week. Let's chat about it.
