Zip’s Dog Blog (2.0)

Hello all,

Quinn’s letting me take a quick moment at the keystrokes while he naps after a difficult morning of waiting warm
inside while some of the snow was removed from his driveway.

Apparently there is some benefit to folks viewing the video and leaving comments on the Teva Life Agent page so here’s
a link for viewing if you are so inspired and comments are appreciated as you are inclined:

I’m really overwhelmed by how many people have reached out to “Boost the Signal” and reach a few more folks with the
link. The comments here and on Facebook (where I do not as yet roam) have been overwhelmingly supportive, touching and
appreciated. Somehow this reached people I hadn’t realized were still out there and attentive. I hope I have the
chance to reconnect with more than a few of them. I’ve been working on growing connections through LinkedIn, Quinn’s
blog and Twitter accounts as well as (gasp) the real world. When we launch 2020 Vision Quest as the Major Charity and
program we intend, it will be helpful to reach more people to boost the signal again. The Teva Life Agent Grant wold
certainly help us prepare for this and whether we win or not I think we shared a quality message as we prepare to
launch this project either way.

I will summit Washington and I will do so with plenty of proper planning and respect for the serious nature of the
mountain and climate. I believe it likely Quinn will be a part of that experience though that decision will be made in
full consideration of all factors to ensure it is safe for him and for all involved. He was fantastic on our prior
hikes and leads me to believe he will be a major part of this process. I really look forward to the full release of
the Vision Quest and sharing more about it with all of you. We are getting very close and it’s a very exciting time in
my life.

Thank you all for the many kind words and great support. I am truly one of the most fortunate people in the world.

Randy
