Day to Day with C+J: Royal Gorge Route Railroad

Earlier in August, Craig and I flew out to Charlotte, NC to attend the Cameron Brooks career conference. Cameron Brooks is the corporate recruiting company that Craig has been working with for over a year. They specialize in placing military officers in corporate positions after they leave the Army. After months of preparing, Craig went through a whirlwind weekend that included 13 interviews between two days. I tagged along to help him through the whole process, so he could focus on the interviews. Out of the 13 interviews he received 10 yeses for follow-up interviews and out of the 10 yeses he was invited for 4 follow-up interviews out of his top 5 choices. And out of the 4 follow-up interviews he received 4 job offers!!! What an amazing blessing. It was a tough decision since all the job offers were in different locations: Utah, PA, NYC and DC. In the end after days of deliberation- Craig decided to accept a position with Godiva Chocolates in Reading, PA! We're heading home! The location in PA isn't ideal, but it does give us the option to live between Reading and Philly so we can both work out of our respective offices. It will be so nice to live near family and friends again.

With the anticipation of leaving CO, Craig and I are trying to do as many "Colorado" things as possible. Last weekend, on a whim, we decided to take a ride on the Royal Gorge Route Railroad! It was so much fun! The weather was perfect and the breakfast was amazing!
