One of my favorite things to do in May between the semesters is to take a “workation” – part work, part vacation. I get more done on my workations than during most workweeks, because I am away from the day to day operation and have more time to reflect.<\/p>\n

I am able to have a longer time away by building in work days while I am on the road. As you can see below, having two dedicated workdays while away gives me the ability to stay in the city I am visiting for a bit longer.<\/p>\n

Here is the agenda for my upcoming workation:<\/p>\n

Next Thursday 5\/15 I begin my road trip to Nashville. Here are some of the events on my agenda – hope to see some of you on my journey.<\/p>\n

Thursday 5\/15 – Baltimore area<\/p>\n

Friday 5\/16 – somewhere in North Carolina\/SW Virginia<\/p>\n

Saturday 5\/17- driving to Nashville in the AM<\/p>\n

Sunday 5\/18 – Nashville visiting friends<\/p>\n

Monday 5\/19 – working in Nashville<\/p>\n

Tuesday 5\/20-Thursday 3\/22 attending Inc Magazine GROWCO Conference<\/a><\/p>\n

Friday 5\/23 – working in Nashville<\/p>\n

Saturday night 3\/24 – driving to Cincinnati (Reds game)<\/p>\n

Sunday 3\/25 – Pittsburgh in the morning (Pirates game)\/Rochester\/Syracuse in the afternoon<\/p>\n

Monday – back home to Saratoga.<\/p>\n

If you’d like to try to meet up along my journey for coffee or a quick visit, let me know! You can also schedule a call with me during my road trip http:\/\/www.meetme.so\/RobertBraathe<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
