Well hello there Interwebs. My name is Bert Fershner, but you can just call me Bert. I am the resident rubber chicken at Turner Public Relations. Now you may ask, what does a resident rubber chicken job entail? It’s a sweet gig. I accompany the lasses and laddies of Turner on adventures near and far, and document the good times. Turns out this crew is more than just a talented team of publicists; they live and breathe what they do. And if you don’t believe me, cluck around; see how we ski, sail, dive, and play.Tumblr (3.0; @adventuresofbert)http://www.adventuresofbert.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lon1k5CqAP1qgnc6co1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lon1k5CqAP1qgnc6co2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lon1k5CqAP1qgnc6co3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>The Colorado sun sure has been taking a beating on my fine feathers but nonetheless some of the Denver girls pitched in to take me on a little excursion to <a href="http://www.waterworldcolorado.com/">WaterWorld</a>.

Too bad, I forgot my sunscreen for our stroll along the Mission Beach boardwalk on our beach cruisers, because for my next adventure I’ll be loading up on that Aloe Vera. No pun intended but those record breaking waves, made me a little chicken to rough the waters, but as for my traveling partner, she didn’t hesitate to get her hair wet. We ventured down to the historic Gaslamp district come nighttime and had brunch the following morning on the sun kissed deck of the Hotel del Coronado (hints the bloody Mary’s).
