As the Founder of a startup, I also have to contend with the realities that someone still needs to pay the bills as I get this venture moving…
And speaking of moving, that’s exactly what my job involves, moving along corridors of the Pacific Northwest with loads of residual wood products, typically, wood chips, to mills and plants that process the wood chips into paper products, cardboard, magazine stock, etc.
A typical day involves running loads of wood chips through the Palouse, a gorgeous expanse of some of the richest farmland in the world! And I mark the seasons of my life, by the seasons and colors and scents of this ever changing scenery, backlit by the changing sunrises and sunsets, and it occurs to me that the great thing about driving through the Palouse four times a day, is that I get to drive through the Palouse, four times a day!
Take time in your life to enjoy the scenery…
