Either the wonderful 2+ week vacation to the UK and Iceland with my wife of 34 years
or

Making time to play gigs with a good friend who had just a few months to live with cancer. We played about every two weeks through the winter and spring. He made it through to the end of June to play at his daughter's wedding, went into the hospital in July and was laid to rest in August. Age 55.
I loved every minute of playing alongside this talented guy. He did some fantastic lead guitar stuff which made everything sound better. I miss him every time I pick up a guitar and sing.

You're playing with a better bunch of musicians now.
God speed Dave

Our son's high school graduation was the high point of an otherwise shabby year for us.....

Lets see... I got a better job Oct 27, saw/hung out with many cool people, slowly turning my car around, but the job was the best part.. I'm still looking for a job in the field I received my Bachelors Degree in.

- Watched my daughter start to walk, talk and develop her own little personality


- Worked less (smarter), made more than I used to at my hateful corporate 9-5 gig. Did 29 real estate deals in 2010!



- Bought another sailboat (Hobie 16) and got back on the water again.

Highlights of 2010?

Being joined by my long time friend and his wife on my annual motorcycle tour in the Alps.

I always wanted someone I know to experience that. And what a first day they had. I've been over the Grossglockner Hockalpenstrasse quite a few times, but never have I had a crystal clear blue sky in every direction.



These are some of the sights they saw along the way to the Dolomites...




And the priceless view from our hotel room in Arabba...



I noticed the PCA has group tours to Germany. The "Driving on the “no speed-limit” Autobahn" caught my eye. OMG, how boring is that; could I show them where the ultra narrow twisty roads are.
