What's the story morning glory? Up before the Sun, the cloudiness of champagne from the Pac Rim the night before notable at the forefront of my mind. Was it too much music? Too much champagne? Was the private dinner @andyfreeman99 hosted excessively kind? Was the company unduly charming? Was Roman Payne's soliloquy correct when he said: "Champagne arrived in flûtes on trays, and we emptied them with gladness in our hearts... for when feasts are laid and classical music is played, where champagne is drunk once the sun has sunk and the season of summer is alive in spicy bloom, and beautiful women fill the room, and are generous with laughter and smiles... these things fill men's hearts with joy and remind one that life’s bounty is not always fleeting but can be captured, and enjoyed. It is in writing about this scene that I relive this night in my soul." It was a great night, both ended a 0400 and began 630 with a walk down the waterfront. But first, this sunrise. #financialplanning #finance #entrepreneur #hustle #greatful #champagne #pacrim #sunrise #wine (at Coal Harbour)

"I have loved the stars too fondly, to be fearful of the night." -Sarah Williams Maybe walking around Montreal for hours, as night turns to morning, makes you brain play tricks on you. But on my way back to the hotel I came across this unknown building right out of Gotham city. Two facts remain undoubted. 1) Old Montreal is exquisite 2) My inner nerd loves Batman I can almost hear Harvey Dent say, "The night is darkest just before the dawn. And I promise you, the dawn is coming." As I stare at this structure before cutting over some tracks back to my hotel I smile to myself over the simple moments in life that make you life worth living. #finance #financialplanning #entrepreneur #workhardplayhard #hustle #quotes #batman #blessed #montreal #emergingleaders #exploring (at Montreal, Quebec)

Inside the pyramid of Summerhill. No lights. No ferrous metals. Aligned due north. Damn near pitch black we climb a narrow stairwell till we reach a room with a circle of chairs. Wine stored in its bowels for up to 30 years before sale. A statue of a golden goddess of some sort looks over us, next to the original wine racks, with bottles still in them. Off limits to everyone but us, the owner, and the, "occassional all female yoga party." The cool room illuminated only by a small skylight. #wine #winery #winetasting #okanagan #entrepreneur #finance #humble #pyramidpower #pyramid (at Summerhill Pyramid Winery)
"I'm dehydrated... I'll just add some water to my Scotch" -Unknown The meal at the Bruichladdich event was on point, and match precisely with the scotch samples. And as we were hydrated; or saturated, from the sky the band played on, never missing a beat. It was a great evening on the banks of the Bow River, I'm surprised I never uploaded the pictures before. . . . . . . #bruichladdich #betterlatethannever #finance #financialplanning #entrepreneur #workhardplayhard #hustle #quotes #blessed #Calgary #yyc #thankful #legacy #rain #leader #scotch #private #exclusive #socialbuttonco #meals #food #music #wine #llconversations (at St. Patrick Island)
