More Than Half of Our Traveling Buddies Are Business Owners
I’ve been reflecting on how diverse the group we recently traveled with are. Of those working, here’s the professions represented (in no particular order).
Owner / Bar & Restaurant
Owner - Building Contractor / Commercial
Owner - Electrical Contractor / Commercial
Owner / Massage Studio & Yoga Center
Owner / Internet Marketer in Direct Sales Industry
Executive VP at Pepsi
Executive at Genesys Telecommunications
Executive at Ikon
Now, who do you think out of everyone was able to take time off and not "have to work" during vacation? Do you see me raising my hand? Of course I did do some work, because I enjoy it - but the beauty of the Carbon Copy Pro Marketing system is that it’s automated and still runs beautifully even when I’m away.
Just like all businesses though, there is double duty to get ready for vacation and then you play catch up on the return, so that doesn’t change… but, most of the others were on their Blackberries whenever we stopped during the day if there was Internet access. Do you see a trend here?
Let me show you a couple of more photos of how I spent my time….
Heading towards the Grand Canyon
One morning I got up at 4:00am to watch the sunrise over the Grand Canyon
Here’s a shot shortly after the sunrise - about 5:30am
Pictures just can’t capture the full magnitude of the Canyon
Leave a comment and tell me the percentage of business owners in your circle of influence…. are you one of them? 
Until next time, J.

First, wow! And, what a lucky lucky person you are to have found a workable, and lucrative home business op that allows you the freedom to pick up and go!
And… agreed! For years I’d seen pictures of the Grand Canyon (on TV, etc.) and thought, “That’s pretty.”
Wasn’t until we stood on the rim itself that I experienced the “your breath is literally taken away by the beauty and magnitude of it all!” Words cannot describe!

Wow! Gorgeous scenery! Looks like while you were traveling and enjoying beautiful scenery, I was as well. I’m hoping to post a few photos too.
