Last Sunday night I went to see the 2009 movie, Amelia at my local Edwards Theater in San Marcos, California shown below.

There were eight people attending the showing. I enjoyed the story. Amelia Earhart was a strong person. She understood who she was. Maybe she reached too far one time too many, but that's who she was. I can relate to that part of her personality when I was her age.

Sometimes in the corporate world, there comes a time when you need to demonstrate your true abilities and convictions in defense of foolish perceptions by upper management. Not enough people are willing to prove themselves in such moments. I was!

I continually spend time refreshing and upgrading my skills and knowledge to further my career.

This looks like a nice getaway train tour in western Arizona.
