I hope you all have a prosperous and healthy year ahead!
What do you see in store this year for our profession?

"Szcz??liwego nowego roku" y "feliz año nuevo" back at ya, Kelly.
Who can really say what the "profession" will weather for the next 52 weeks?
Workload-wise maybe it might be a little better than it's been. There's still a mess of surveyors that are barely hanging on or trying to dig outa the crater. Let's all hope for better days and healthier real estate market. Title conveyance will continue to be a good incubator for our prospective work.
Quality wise I hope the profession continues to draw young people that are more interested in the "artscience" as a livelyhood than optimizing their incomes. I see a lot of younger people that I believe will carry on our proud profession throughout this economy and others to come.
I hope we continue to broaden the profession's horizon with our abilities now to precisely locate our projects not only in a legal and local sense, but geodetically as well. Leading the pack with precision is our only chance of rising above poorly prepared and mega-proliferated gis "cartoon data".
And above all else, I hope we all continue to maintain a great and wonderful sense of humor. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to my Beerleg Family!
I'm starting off the new year by enrolling to take two online surveying classes at Longview Community College. I've decided to pursue my license in three additional states in the next two years, so I'm getting back in the saddle for schooling and studying.
I wish all of my fellow surveyors the best of luck in the upcoming year, and hope and pray that things will start to turn the corner for our profession as a whole.

Best of 2012 to all you Beerleggers!

Yo, Wendell Your clock is wrong
Party hearty, everyone.
Blessings and hopes for a better year in the future than any in your past.
Battened down here with a bag full of car keys and drunk 20 somethings, doing the responsible parent thing tonight and babysitting those who cannot be trusted to their own devices. Hopefully tomorrow will be nothing more than bad hangovers rather than bail money and towing fees.
well wishes to everyone for the New Year
Made it to 10:00pm and woke up on the couch at 3am. No alcohol involved, but I think the end of 2011 put me to bed early and the beginning of 2012 got me up early.
Hoping 2012 has more promise than the last 3 years. The lights are still on, but......
Ready willing and able to take on whatever needs my services, but "need" is the key word.
Fingers crossed here.
Black eye peas, cabbage and pork chops in a few hours.
Cheers!!
2012 HAS to be better. At least I'm planning on it. Black eyed peas, collard greens, corn bread and ham for dinner (or maybe supper). It's on the stove now and smelling up the house.

All the best for 2012 for all beerleggers and their families,
Chr.
Ditto on all! I hoping for a job. If not then I will start my business again. Hopefully it will be the surveying business and not the business of sitting and waiting for the phone to ring....:)
