I’ll be out in Wild West Virginia (for the second time in as many months…) from tomorrow through Saturday for EchoDitto’s annual retreat. I can’t wait. I’ve got to admit, I was a little wary back in October when I was searching for a January retreat location, knowing full well that I might not be attending said retreat, but things have worked out grand and I’m actually in the first car out of the office.
All the clients are on “pause” and it’s time for some bonding with the coworkers. Best part? No Internet (and probably spotty cellphone service). It’s going to be weird talking to each other while making eye contact.
Some things on the agenda:
- hiking/running
- raquetball/tennis
- hottub/pool
- pictionary
- lots of good food and drink
- ipod speakers throughout
Oh yeah, and professional development, planning, company philosophy indoctrination, and maybe, if I’m lucky some trust falls.
And finally, to all my coworkers with a Technorati watchlist set up for “EchoDitto”, hi 🙂
