CORE GIS Has Temporarily Relocated to Belize

My family and I moved to Ambergris Caye, Belize two weeks ago and we will return to Seattle in June 2014. I've relocated CORE GIS for the duration of our stay, and will continue working with all of our Washington and Oregon-based clients. I've ported the CORE GIS telephone number to Vonage (VoIP), and soon you will be able to call the same number and will not incur any international long distance charges. Email, Skype, and join.me will also be good ways to communicate and collaborate. Unfortunately my Seattle cell phone does not work in Belize, but if you need to get in touch right away you can reach me at +011-501-620-7249.

During daylight saving time, Belize is one hour ahead of Seattle, and during standard time, it is two hours ahead (same as US Central Time). Of course, meeting face-to-face will be a little more difficult, but I'm planning on one, possibly two trips back to Washington to meet with people, and will post those dates here once they are confirmed. Be sure to let me know if you'd like to get together.

And now for some photos of Belize!
