The SAGE Competition on Friday was a lot of fun. I met a number of new people (fellow judges and others), and was very impressed by the teams who participated. The most unique idea I heard was from a team representing a small school from a rural southern town. Their idea was to create a co-op supermarket store to replace the Wynne Dixie that just closed up shop. They constructed a plan that was actually accepted by local planners, and are moving to construction phase. Entrepreneurship is about identifying a need and executing on it in a way that solves a problem. They did just that.

Following that, I headed down to the jersey shore (where I am now) to visit family and some friends. I just game from my sister’s soccer tournament where she assisted in the game winning goal with 3 seconds left (go Morgan!) That may have earned them first place.

This morning I went on a bike ride with my best friend growing up, Matt. We biked 25 miles down the coast and through Sandy Hook. I stole this picture from Bob:

And this beach was an interesting find…

 
 One more day left, then back to Boston!
