Two Week Notice
I will be leaving in two weeks on my backpacking trip (I am hiking from Mexico to Canada on the Pacific Crest trail).
I will be on the trail for the first month or so without ever leaving it, there is no way to contact me so if you need to talk to me about something, do it soon 
My general schedule for the hike is a total of five months, with a couple of weeks off in June to attend (possibly) SMX Advanced in Seattle and to speak at the WidgetWebExpo in New York. I will end my trip in September and will speak at SEM Canada.
In other words, I am not available for anything really unless it has already been arranged.
The first five hundred miles are shown on this map, I am starting at Campo, on the Mexican border…
After this portion I will check my emails, possibly blog a quick hello, and then be on my to the Sierras and the rest of my trip.
Pat is happy
For any business stuff you would normally talk to me about, I highly recommend you go to Hamlet Batista instead, who has a team of developers, a great business ethic, and the creativity to do gadget projects. He can probably take care of you well.

Pat, I’m jealous. I’d love to unplug for a few months. Good travels and good luck! Hope to see you at SMX Seattle.
