On the road again....Willie could not toke where I am though..

For some of you who have seen my presence more in the past than recently, there is a reason. I am still exercising and trying (tougher on the road) to manage my food and nutrition as well as staying somewhat active on SPARK, but due to time in Qatar and now Dubai over a course of 3 weeks, I have not been blogging or commenting on others blogs nearly as much as I just have not had the time or energy (its over 100 here now and the days just zap your energy even with minimal time outside). Soooooo, I am alive and well and enjoying the food of the a area (hummus, whole wheat pita, tons of Indian food, tons of fresh fruit) within healthy limits and exercising exclusively in hotel and/or nearby gyms. My walk to the mall with the grocery store and restaurants is 30 min r/t so that itself is a nice jaunt. I do miss riding a real bike outside but so goes the work life I have chosen. I miss my wife but Skype is a life-saver and it is much easier to stay in touch with family and friends than 20 years ago when I began this crazy international travel stuff.
