You may notice The Entrepreneurial MD Blog grow silent for two weeks. I shall be vacationing in France with my family, in Paris for a few days and then at my brother’s home in the countryside near the Swiss border.

This trip comes with a large price tag – my 5-year old daughter is devastated at missing the opening of Wall-E and her beloved July 4th fireworks. “Pooh Paris” is how she describes it.

However, this mommy did some homework and discovered that the largest July 4th celebration outside of the US is held annually in nearby Geneva – so that will be her surprise, if we can handle a crowd of 35,000 in a foreign city.

I shall not be thinking much about my work, or the US healthcare system, or politics, or anything that reminds me of home. I plan a full-blown escape!

But I know I shall enjoy getting back into the swing of things when it is all over. I have discovered what it’s like to really love a job and to look forward to the excitement and challenges of making The Entrepreneurial MD a resource worthy of your attention.

Have a great couple of weeks, and for my US readers may you enjoy a festive Independence Day.
