I Finally Smashed a Record

 Howdy from blasing hot Texas once again.  Of course, what else would one expect temperature wise in Texas this time of year!  It's the norm.  Welcome to August 2012.

Since time time immemorial I have been chasing the all allusive 100 barrier, and I'm not referring to the temperature!  No, I'm a duffer - a golfer.  I do not get to play much anymore, and probably haven't played in the better part of two years or so.  When I was at Texas Foundries, I played quite often with the foundrymen and we had an annual golf tournament.

This last weekend found me up in the north country of Minnesota catching up with some of my oldest and dearest friends.  Chris, whom I've known since 7th grade, and Trey whom I've known since 10th grade or so.  I like keeping friends around.  We all went to college together and have always kept up and done playcations to places like Vegas.  This playcation found us up north visiting Chris and jamming in two rounds of golf.

On the 2nd day of the tournament, I finally broke 100 for the first time in my life scoring a 96!  I figured, secretively of course, that I'd probably be walking off the course and get hit by a bolt of lightning out of the clear blue sky or die peacefully in my sleep.  

At Synchro ERP, we are also setting all sorts of records, probably covering more air and land miles in a single year, and it's only August. Customer visits and new installations are keeping the team hard at work and the road warriors flying off in all sorts of directions.

I do wish to welcome the newest member of our management team, Jon Mapp, who has come on board to learn the ropes of support under the watchful eye of Lee.  Welcome aboard Jon.  Additionally, Kevin Lenton out of the Brazil office, will be formally be joining the management team in October providing additional support and sales to the North American and Oceanic markets.

Until next time, see you on down the road.
