Hope & Change

The spectacle of one million plus crowded on to the Mall in DC to witness the the changing of the guard this week, happy, exuberant, peaceful... it was quite a sight to see. If only they would have packed out their trash with them as they left.

For the past two years now, our new President has been promising Hope & Change. Cliches? Perhaps. Around these parts, however, I'm beginning to see signs of a change for the better and hope on the horizon. For the first time in the past couple of months, the phones have been ringing off the hook, work has been coming in at a very nice & steady pace and it looks like things on the economic front will be OK for the next few months at least. 

All the sudden activity has kept me away from the blog with little time to make entries here. There is much good stuff to write about but suddenly, time is very precious. I promise more next week once I get a handle on the rising assignment tide.
