In Memory of My Grandfather

John Herald Folks Burton (July 27th 1915 - July 17 2010)

I am truly blessed in my life to have had a wonderful grandfather that I spent so much time with.
After 12 years of battling with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's my grandfather passed away July 17 while surrounded by his loving family
My grandfather was funny, kind, well spoken, giving, smart, understanding, and a great listener.
I remember many times when I was younger spending time with my grandfather telling me about fighting in the war, us watching old movies together, going to the market, and reading C.S. Lewis books.
My grandfather always believed in me and all my crazy ideas and thought that I could do anything if I set my mind to it.
The greatest lesson that I learned from him is that you can get what you want from life, without compromising who you are and what you believe in, and that is one of the greatest things I have ever learned.
So for all the smiles, all the wonderful advise, all the great times we had, I say thank you, thank you, thank you.
You will always live on in my heart as the wonderful man that you were!!

All of my Love!!

One of My Favorite Things!! Part 2

I, like most other people right now LOVE Lady Gaga, and I am really enjoying her new remixes album.
Even though there are more the one remix of some of the same songs, I really love the remix of Alejandro, Bad Romance, and my favorite remix on the album, Dance In The Dark.
I have found myself listening to it a lot as I walk/run as most of the tracks are pretty fast!!
So if your a Gaga fan, check it out today!!

The Canadian Open and BMW

So I spent the Thursday to Sunday representing BMW at the Canadian Open at St. Georges Golf Course in Toronto.
It was a wonderful four days spent talking with people about BMW and Golf, as well as watching some really great golfers including Pettersson (The Winner of the Canadian Open 2010)
The weather as always was all over the place but for the most part was really nice.
I got to check out the 2011 line-up for BWM as well as get right in and check out there new 2011 Active Hybrid X6 and 7 Series, and they were amazing.
All in all it was an awesome four days, and I look forward to doing it again next year!!

It's fun to play the "part" of someone that is so different from you.
