Blogging will be slow for the next 8-9 days or so.   I'm taking off on a multi-sport adventure vacation through the Icelandic backwaters with a colleague.   We'll be hiking, rafting, kayaking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and along the way taking dips in the nation's famed geothermal springs.  

Geek that I am, I am bringing along my laptop with the goal of a blog entry or 2 while on the trip.   My trusty digital camera will be by my side as well so a photo ops or 2 will punctuate my sea of text.

Forecasted weather for our trip looks surprisingly Seattle-ish:

	Showers	59°/50°	40 %
	Light Rain	56°/48°	60 %
	Light Rain	57°/48°	60 %
	Showers	57°/48°	50 %
	Showers	57°/49°	40 %

Jim Rogers was quite impressed by Iceland's youthful, economic vitality. I'll be surveying this first hand
