When traveling for business, I need a trip length measured in hours, not days.
Time is money...
What?
So what's the "RETIRED" thing doing in the title?

I stepped down from the OGR CEO position on September 1, 2018. I still do some of the IT and admin work and consult with the guys a bit, but I am officially "retired" from OGR now.

When I have to travel long distance, Amtrak is not on the list. As Hot Water said above, there is no way I'm spending multiple DAYS on a train to go cross country.

When The Lovely and Gracious Linda and I travel now, we do it in this Land Yacht, otherwise named our "Wheel Estate." It is MUCH nicer than anything Amtrak has to offer, and almost as fast.
