Summer!

Hi everyone!  Hope you are all having a nice summer so far.  We are definitely jealous of all of you Perdido-goers since we will miss our annual beach trip this year.  Tom, Brian, and I did manage to squeeze in a little vacation recently at the Greenbrier in West Virginia - I'll post some pictures below.  Part of the resort sits on top of a secret bunker that was built for Congress to use in the event of a nuclear attack.  The plan was exposed by the Washington Post in the 90s, so now the bunker is open to the public for tours - definitely something to see. Overall, it was a great vacation and we definitely hope to go back again sometime.  It has been a fun summer, but we miss our New Orleans family and cant wait to see everyone in August!

Job Update

Hello Everyone!

I just wanted to give you a quick heads up on my job situation. I am leaving Rainmaker in about 10 days to accept a position at a local consulting firm. I will be handling commercial contracts for Staples/Quills in Austin trying to expand their corporate presence in the city. It is a little nerve racking at this point, but the earning potential and advancement opportunity could make this a long term commitment.

The Baton Rouge Dietz's are heading to Perdido this week for our family vacation, so I am hoping all this good weather everyone is talking about can hold up for us! I hope all the wee babes are doing well, as are the new mothers and fathers. To all my cousins and Aunts/Uncles (or grandparents) which ever you prefer, I look forward to seeing you in August for Mike's wedding!

Love to all,

Sir Theodore of the Dietz Clan
