Mike Brown was “meme’d” or “tagged” by Donna and Wayne Realtor Friends in Columbus Ga with a challenge to tell 7 interesting things about Him. So here it goes.

  1. Mike grew up in Ann Arbor Michigan and attended Michigan State University where he studied business and marketing, graduating in 1992.
  2. Mike’s favorite childhood hobbies included sailing, skiing, model making, playing with lego expert builders kits, his 1977 Commodore PET computer and learning BASIC.
  3. Mike’s after college hobbies were not that different from those of childhood, just a good deal more extreme. At the age of 22 in 1993 Mike packed up his 1984 station wagon and headed off to the mountains of Colorado where he spent a season working at Crested Butte Ski Resort which led to other outdoor employment adventures including Mt. bike guide in Moab Utah, mountaineering guide in Red Lodge Montana, ski resort employee/ski bum at Alpine Meadows Lake Tahoe California. The climax of this “adventure period” a very long drive from San Francisco CA to Kodiak Island Alaska where he spent a season as a commercial Salmon fisherman.
  4. These exciting times were followed by two very boring non productive years in Michigan. Craving more adventure, Mike did what anyone who wants to see the world but cannot afford to do so on their own does. He joined the Military. Although rules & regulations were a little alien to Mike’s way of thinking he adapted well and before long boot camp, tech school and aircrew survival school were all behind him.
    Over the next 10 years Mike flew to all reaches of the globe aboard the Lockheed C-5 Galaxy. It’s actually quicker for Mike to tell you the countries he has not visited than those he has.
  5. Mike’s first child (daughter) was born just a few weeks ago. January 2008.
  6. Mike Has driven across the the country twice on motorcycles.
  7. Mike was head of the top sales team at his office for 2007

I’ll be passing this on to another 7 Realtors later this afternoon but at the moment I have to get ready to host an open house.
