I am finally back!

September 7th, 2006 by The Oracle Alchemist

It has been quite a while since I made a post, but things have been extremely hectic!

I took a road trip with my wife and two kids to Oklahoma City from Virginia Beach…this was a three day drive for us, as kids always slow you down as well as make the drive seem much longer.  Are we there yet?  We had a blast, two weeks in OK City with in-laws and having a great time.  From there, it was Dallas for a week, then the long drive home.

Also during this time, I was awarded the Oracle ACE achievement.  You can see my ACE page on Oracle’s site.  OCM, ACE, OpenWorld speaker…they REALLY need an Oracle Alchemist award too.

Lastly, I’ve been working with the Hampton Roads Oracle User’s Group and the Greater Richmond Oracle User’s Group on a one day conference we’re putting on in Williamsburg, VA called Oracle Conference on the James.  Check it out!  We’re going to have some great speakers and vendors.

Anyways, that’s it for me at the present, there will be more to come.  I’m not settled back in my familiar recliner, typing away into the night.
