Thought I would share some news and photos from our recent trip to Oklahoma and New Mexico. My wife and I traveled to Oklahoma, then on to New Mexico during the first half of September. The trip provided a great opportunity to us to conduct board activities and to meet with potential clients in New Mexico.
We had a really nice visit with B. Carlson Plumbing, Heating and Air. In fact, we put together a two hour mini seminar for owner, Byron Carlson and delivered that presentation in Rio Rancho. Flyline Search Marketing is planning to dedicate at least one full time employee to the Albuquerque marketplace.
Pictured above is my older brother and Flyline Search Marketing Board Member, Steve Lein. Steve and his family live in Oklahoma. Both he and his wife Carole, work in the banking industry. Their son and my incredible nephew Zach, is enrolled in pre-med courses at the University of Oklahoma. He is now officially a Sooner! The meeting with Steve was great. We accomplished a great deal and found time to discuss a number of mission critical opportunities for Flyline Search Marketing.
Heading to dinner in the Bricktown area of Oklahoma City. Nice to spend time with family. We ate at Mickey Mantle's restuarant, across from the AAA Baseball facility at Bricktown.
After leaving Oklahoma City, we traveled through the panhandle of Texas and passed a Wind Turbine farm. These turbines generate clean energy for the northern portion of Texas. There were literally hundreds of these turbine units and the wind farm stretched for miles. The terrain is flat and the wind blows continuously, which is absolutely perfect for electricity generation.
The trip also included a couple of days of vacation time in the Northern New Mexico mountains with my parents, Roy and Patricia Lein. Below are a few more photos from the trip to the mountains.

Over the weekend, I took the opportunity to ride my bicycle up the road that leads to Sandia Peak. The peak is the highest point in Albuquerque, towering over the city at a whooping 10,000 Feet. I started at approximately 5,500 feet and rode for almost 2 hours, straight up the mountain. Yeap, the altitude kicked my backside, but, I wouldn't have traded that experience for anything. The backside of the Sandia Mountains is absolutely gorgeous. Full of trees and incredible beauty at every turn in the road.
