The thing is, we have been very busy.
In the last half month we have made leaps and bounds on the new prototype - in fact we are close to releasing prototype 3. Now, we can edit resources and content straight from the website. That might not sound like a big deal, but it is huge - in fact, its so huge it has never been done before. Ever. By anyone. I wont go into the nitty gritty details...but trust me this is big.
Last week we made the transition into a new office, at OfficeThis on Harry street. It surely is something else, great office space, conference rooms, cafe's, unlimited printing access, new phone lines, 2 new computers, its just awesome.
We finally have some seed start up money in the bank so we can move forward at a much more rapid pace than earlier this month. I have been busy meeting with several potential investors and things are going great.
I've added another key element to the start-up team on my end, he's a good friend of mine named Richie McNabb. Richie definately has a head on his shoulders and has been hard at work getting us in front of new potential investors. We have 2 mammoth meetings coming up in the next few weeks, that, in my opinion, could be the spring board for us to go to the next level!
Richie looking...normal
The Navigator Employment system is moving along, that should be active and in place by the end of August with a handful of selected individuals (already have several in mind).
I successfully submitted our business proposal to the Great Plains Capital Conference coming to town in September. That was a task in itself getting the necessary documents in order but it was well worth the effort. Hopefully we are fully funded before that conference, but feels good to have back up engines already started...
Last week we had the first official Time Trails dinner party. People who have been closely associated with the start up of the company all met at the Fox and Hound for a night of Pizza and Wings. Attending were:
Me, Anna, Lily, Karl, Debby, Uncle Craig, Aunt Jan, Richie McNabb, Rich Mcnabb, Fayrene McNabb (the whole family has been very very supportive), and of course Tony say-it-isnt-so Guhr. Unfortuantely, the man in charge of setting everything up for the party, (He got us 100 dollars of free food!) Eric Ott, was called into work only hours before the party started. So that was truly unfortunate...we all wished he could have been there.
Also, there is some headway coming in from the south, my Uncle Paul (Karl's Brother) is working on some extremely important technical details of the project. It seems as though the momentum just keeps building and building. Its almost too exciting to write about!
In fact, that might be why I haven't been writing about it!! Its too good!
But really, I will make a conserted effort to keep up the daily blogging so people dont think we failed or disappeared or were abducted...
On a personal front, in a nutshell =
Music is going great. Having shows every week. Awesome.
We are moving to a new house this month, a large communal mansion with several other people. (Basically the whole band) Im excited about that.
I shot my best golf score ever the other day.
Tiger Woods won his 69th PGA tour event. No surprise.
I'm headed for Colordado in the morning to see family and take the boys on an adventure in the mountain.
My artwork was on display this month at one of favorite places ever, the Bayleaf Cafe.
Lily is kind of walking but not really.
Anna is visiting friends in Denver.
And finally, I want to go golfing with my brother Clay. Whenever.
Thats it for the half month update! feel free to invite others to the blog and leave comments because this will be steam roller pretty soon.
PS - a shout out to our other Time Trail associates in Garden City, KS - you know who you are.
PPS - Dad is working diligently at his desk. He grunts and acknowledges everyone. His excitement is obvious to me, because I know him so well.
