Picture this:

Far away from civilization. Nice sandy beaches. Warm, perfect weather. Crystal blue water. No screaming kids. A dream? Maybe for me, but Phil was asked to speak in the Dominican Republic last week and this was his view on the beach! Nice!

I don't brag enough about my dear husband. Besides doing fantastic work at his day job, he spends a lot of time lecturing around (and out of) the country. A few years ago he was debating whether or not this was the profession for him...maybe an early midlife crisis or something. But after long discussions, we decided instead of changing routes, he ought to try and become one of the best at what he does. I'm happy to say (in my humble opinion) that he has done just that! I'm proud of you Phil and all that you have accomplished. Muy bien!

So cool, were you able to go with? I always say that Jeff has seen and probably will continue to see the world without me. That is great that Phil is exceling in his profession and able to help others do so as well.

Good job Phil! It must be something about that UW education!

Loved your last two posts, Jennie! I also got to go to a much needed Enrichment activity last night...it was amazing. So what does Phil do? I'm curious as to what he's lecturing on.

Phil does prosthetics and orthotics (artificial limbs and bracing.) To be honest, I'm not sure what he was lecturing on last week. He touches on so many subjects that I lose track. He lectures on anything from helmets, to evidence based practice. I got to hear him lecture in Vancouver, BC last year on feet. And he actually made feet interesting!
