Workshifting Tips While on Vacation

It's New Year's and as I write this I am within 100 yards of the immaculate Niagara Falls.  In aajleon-workshifting.jpg completely random sequence of events, I'm in an RV driving across the moose-filled terrain of Canada (For all you Twitter fiends out there, the hashtag for our current adventure is #rvcanada ). 

Melissa and I always take the last week of one year and the first week of the next and get as far away from life as we can in order to reflect about the past and dream about the future.  Technically, we are on vacation.  But just like most of you, we can't afford to be away from "work" for that long.  So what do we do?  We have learned the fine art of workshifting while on holiday.

I decided to shoot a quick video giving you a few tips for workshifting while on vacation.
