Thanks to everyone for all the good wishes! I really appreciate it!

I'll still be doing the harp playing, no question about that. I've always had a day job along with my music jobs. It's my day job I'm ditching to do something I like for a change!

So I'll be doing music and being around bikes, my two favorite things. How lucky am I???

You have to pay for two seats.

Just kidding. You can ride my mother (ship) any time.

I didn't think it was possible, but my hot girlfriend just got a little hotter!

The only problem I see is I won't be able to surprise her with presents for her bike any more.

So about my new job place, you may have heard of it.

It's in Orange County...

It involves a hobby I love...

It has a lot of cool people working there...

It looks like this...



Yep, it's The Path Bike Shop! I hope you guessed before this.

The full time hours kick in officially in May, but I'll be helping out on this coming Saturday, Sea Otter weekend, to get started a bit early. I'm really looking forward to being a part of The Path team!
so...... how do you like doing what you love and being poor?(its a bike love thang)

p.s. the path looks like a shop id love to work at if i was tin that area
! ENJOY!

Yeah, I'm already used to being poor, I am a musician too! That doesn't pay well for sure, since the income is intermittent, but I love it too.

I've had jobs in the past where I've made good money but I've dreaded going in every morning. I've learned over time that I'd rather look forward to my day and get paid less.
