The Things You Learn (through experience)

Did you know that if you are walking near Water Bucks and they grunt, you can feel the vibration go right through you?? Ya learn something new every day!!!  Although, maybe we just shouldn't walk so close to herd next time.  But considering my family is gearing up for the Early Doe Season, seeing 100+ water bucks outside my door makes me a little homesick for fall in MI.

 My teammates and I are spending a few days in the Rift Vally for our annual team retreat. We spend a good chunk of the day talking business (fun stuff like budgets and the future of the team and work assignments) but we also spend time enjoying each others company, eating great food, playing epic card games,  having swimming lessons and watching the wildlife that walks right up to our door. Like I said before, there were well over 100 water bucks outside our door. And giraffes out the front (close enough to pet if you had no fear and were stupid enough to try- a giraffe kick can kill a lion.). There are monkeys running around finding trouble and now I'm just waiting for the hippos that come out of the lake after dark (seriously, we can't walk back to our rooms after dark without a guard).
