I’ve been away

July 2, 2001 by Michael Boyle

on and off since mid-week, including a meeting up at Tremblant which went extremely well and included a fantastic trip whitewater rafting (team building, doncha know) and some great discussions with my American counterparts at work. Got back on Friday, but the weekend is mostly non-blogging time for me. Today’s my second Monday off in a row, thanks this time to Canada Day.
