When Alex, Doug and I visited Olympic National Park a few years ago, I stumbled upon their “passport” program which gives kids (and adults, if you’re so inclined) a passport to have stamped when you visit a national park.

Many of our readers know that we have a second home in Vermont that I really enjoy. We go up regularly all year round. I believe my love of Vermont started in my childhood running around in the woods of Cary, NC. We moved to Cary just as the Research Triangle Park area was starting to develop.

Growing up as a kid, I don’t really remember playing many board games until I reached high school with the exception of Backgammon. We had a travel version of it that I would play with my family and friends on our sailing trips in the waters of North Carolina.

It’s amazing how things have changed. During the winter months as a youth, I was likely inside playing board games with my friends. We played all the classics plus some newcomers such as Pictionary and Trivial Pursuit.

This time of year is busy with the hustle and bustle of the holidays. I find that it makes it difficult to see the “magic” of Christmas or the world around you according to your personal faith. Whether you are religious or not, I do believe in magic.

Some days as I head out, my son will shout, "Hope you're not too bored at work!" I always answer, "Don't worry, I won't be; I love my job." And it's true. I am truly blessed to love what I do—including all the things that go on behind the scenes at IT Radix.
