Yesterday started out with a workshop about energy efficient lighting. The workshop content did not hold my attention, but happily, I sat next to Jean Young and John Bendon with Green Building LLC, a local green homebuilding and energy rating company. Jean and John are also active with the Hawaii chapter of the U.S Green Building Council, so I had the chance to express my interest in participating with the chapter and Jean invited me to sit in on a conference call with the chapter's education committee this morning. Just goes to show, you never know what will come out of these workshops. I always felt that the most value was in the networking.
On the way back to school from the workshop I caught a beautiful view of Haleakala with the peak just showing through the clouds.
I actually had to leave the workshop early to meet Chancellor Clyde Sakamoto for lunch at The Class Act, the very classy restaurant run by the Maui Culinary Academy. The food was just incredible. And even though I was so full, I had to make room for dessert.
I spent the rest of the afternoon readjusting my mindset to one of the cubicle-dwelling working class.
