Congrats, Jeff. That's a big change. Big changes take guts but can be a lot of fun.

Do you ski? Do you mountain bike?

I like Summit county. I'd be getting out there a lot if I lived in Denver.

Congrats Jeff,

I am relieved to see it all worked out for you in the end.

Jeff,

Congrats on the job. Now you're closer in case I need to ship you another bass for conversion....:-)

Hey, Jeff...sorry for being scarce lately...I've been busier than a Baghdad pothole-fixing crew...

Wow! This is indeed great news...in many ways of course, but it certainly increases the odds of a 'Rocky Mountain RicFest' in my lifetime...

Welcome to Denver; remember to stop and take a deep breath every now and then.

(Come to think of it, that's good advice at any altitude...)

Well I am in Denver now ... the bad thing is it is unseasonably cold and they almost never get this much snow ... But I still like the town ... so far no problems with altitude ... I missed all of the ice storms when I drove cross country ... I look forward to becoming part of the local music scene here ... And Dane when I am settled in and unpacked we should get together for a beer ... and I will miss my Michigan friends ... I have a new 1997 white 4003 with black trim that is coming my way in the next few days ... it is pretty cool ... it hasn't yellowed yet ...

Yea it figures, a white bass now that you are in Denver.

Jeff, it's been cold and snowy here since you left. Well, snowy is relative, compared to Denver we got a dusting.
I'm just happy to be here.

Jeff, was just thinking about you today, glad to hear all went well...Denver rocks just a little bit more now that you are there.
Bought a new bass today and wanted to show it to you, I guess I will have to send pics from now on....sigh....

Yep it was good having you in the same office ... imagine 2 five string Ric players working at the same architectural firm ... the new job is really cool ... the division I work for does power plants ... I have a new bass coming that I would like to show you as well ... I just unpacked a 5 string fenderbird tonight ...I can't wait to rock out in some local bars soon ...

I heard the use of too many periods in a post contributes to global warming!
