We are having a lovely rain day today. The gardens need it. I read a great book by Clay Christensen , Jeff Dyer and Hal Gregersen called The Innovator's DNA - Mastering the Five Skills of Disruptive Innovators. Christensen is one of the great thinkers of our time. Start by reading his book - Innovators Dilemma where he explains what disruptive innovation is.

The garden is awesome right now. Fresh tomatoes, string beans, zucchini, lima beans, carrots, beets, onions, leeks, pumpkin and of course most herbs (basil, chives, parsley, thyme, rosemary etc). Even a few blueberries and a small second crop of strawberries. It is a problem of abundance. Carrots are good but carrot tops are too prolific to eat so freezing some.

Hurricane Irene is changing my plans. I tend to book myself fairly tightly so when something like this happens, I end up with "found" time. I love this extra time regardless of how I choose to spend it. Those of you who know me well, know I tend to be productivity focused but I also sometimes choose to use time for recharging (read recreation/socializing etc.).

Personal post. My son got married to a wonderful woman today. Great event. All went smoothly. My speech (timed at 1:15 while rehearsing it): " I am a bit reluctant to speak when the audience is all issued with stones when they arrive (the table numbers and names were written on beach stones). As most of you know, this was a big week. The Dow dropped by almost 600 points.

Just personal today. My daughter Beth and son-in-law Chris had a baby boy this morning. 8 weeks ahead of schedule (thinking he should go into the software business - he would be unique). 1.5 Kg (4 pounds, 4 oz.). Mom and Josh are healthy and all is well.
