The Good Reasons Why I Stepped Down as President of Team Up

My Doe Bay, Doe Bay!
I think if you died and went to Seattle's music heaven, you might find that it is called Doe Bay.  Well, at least that's how I felt as I stepped onto the ferry to return from Orcas Island on Sunday afternoon.  I had just had an experience that felt so great that it's taken two weeks for me to even sit down and attempt to describe it for...
