While I love Yes, Rush, Genesis, Foo Fighters, Thelonious Monk, Leo Sayer, The Bay City Rollers, Moog Cookbook, Pat Metheny, The Soggy Bottom Boys, and lots of other musicians and I’m blessed to attend a lot of concerts, there’s always been a special place in my heart for opera and I’ve been a raving opera fan for decades. I’ve listened to Donizetti’s “Roberto Devereux” twice today between coaching clients. To read more click here

It appears that it’s that time of year again when my little friends fly South for the Winter. I haven’t had any of my friends visit any of my feeders on our deck or the feeder attached to one of my office windows in about three days. I normally spend time with them every day.

I hope you had a great Labor Day holiday and that you’ve had a fun Summer. In August I took a week off from writing my newsletter and then that week stretched into two weeks, and then three weeks and then before I knew it we were into September. So now that Summer’s pretty much over it’s time to get back into the routine of writing my newsletter on a consistent basis. Many kind folks emailed me saying that they’ve missed my newsletter over the last few weeks. Thanks for your kindness. To read more click here

It’s starting to get cooler in the evenings here at 7500′ in Monument, Colorado. And the sun’s starting to set sooner also. The kids are going back to school next week. Where did the Summer go? I was born and raised in NJ where it’s illegal to go back to school before Labor Day. They’re a little different here in Colorado. To read more click here

I hope you’re enjoying your Summer! It’s gorgeous here at 7500′ in Colorado. The hummingbirds are whirring around, the deer are in our yard early in the morning, the sunsets are gorgeous, and life is beautiful. I heard that it snowed up north in Wyoming and Montana over the weekend – yikes. Even for up there, that’s pretty rare for this time of year. I hope it’s beautiful where you are and that you’re enjoying the slowed down Summer pace. To read more click here

I’m home this week and next (except for a speaking engagement I was kindly asked to deliver in Denver yesterday for the regional chapter of a national communications, marketing, and PR association) with two of our kids while Beautiful is in Botswana on safari for two weeks. This is her second year going on safari at Mashatu Game Reserve (camera safari, not gun safari). She goes with a group of Australian lady friends (she’s the only American) and a guide who happens to be the only man in the group and he actually has his own nature show on Australia television. He’s intimately familiar with Mashatu. To read more click here

I hope you’re having a great week! Wondering….whatcha been watching on TV lately? I’ve always had an interest in British history. Lately, Beautiful and I have been watching a bunch of shows on the Queen now that she’s 90 years old and also watching shows on British history and the monarchy in general. Fascinating stuff. Here’s a picture of me in the actual Abbey of Westminster Abbey while I was in London a few months ago to deliver some speaking and training engagements. There’s no photography allowed in Westminster Abbey so this pic was shot pretty quickly by my private guide. To read more click here

Okay, now it’s really starting to feel like Spring. I spoke in the Midwest a few days ago and it was in the 80’s. Toasty. I was kindly asked to present at an insurance conference in Indianapolis, IN earlier this week. I deliver a lot of speaking and training engagements in cities like New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Miami, Dallas, etc so it’s fun to get to visit a city I don’t often get to like Indianapolis.
