2000

Maida quit her full time position at Mobilize to pursue contract web work for her own company MaidaNet. She's working quarter time at Mobilize, half time at Carmichael Training Systems and also does freelance work for MaidaNet clients, Judd Winick, Terry Moore, and others.

Doug organized JustCOS...friends who were interested in improving their lives and the lives of other in Colorado Springs, through volunteer work and cultural events.

Bartleby J. Barksalot

We welcomed the newest member of our family, Bartleby J. Barksalot, in January 2000. He's the apple of Doug's eye! He came to us through DreamPower. Bartleby is a husky/lab mix.

Maida's sister, Berni Carpio, moved to Colorado Springs in January 2000. It's great to have more family in town. She lives in a duplex, with her boyfriend Andy Reynolds and our friend Matt Seibel. (The same duplex we lived in with Jennifer and Nick when we first returned to Colorado!)
