I can’t think of a proper title

The past two weeks have been very strange. For one thing, having to live in a hotel in Colorado Springs was definitely a case of culture shock. Colorado Springs is definitely a small mountain town, despite the size and population.
However, the strangest thing that happened was when I got home and found a [...]

I’m Home!

I just woke up in Miami. But I have to be at work in 11 1/2 hours, so this is brief. Pictures are up. Check them all out here.

Colorado Springs

New Definition of Cold Front

In Miami, every couple years or so they warn us of some freezing air of death that is attacking us. Generally this means the temperature overnight will hit 40° but by the time the sun is up the temperature has risen to a bone chilling 65°. By mid afternoon, we’re back to a sunny 85° [...]

Someone blew up the sun!

Another Monday in the wild frontiers of Colorado Springs and what does it bring? Someone took out the Sun. It was there all last week and now it’s gone. As if that wasn’t enough, I found a thin sheet of ice on the car’s front windshield. Ice? Ice should not [...]

Alone in a car with my iPod

Today was an anticipated day. Talking to Nancy earlier in the week, I was struck by sudden inspiration. My mother loves to joke that Wyoming doesn’t exist. After all, have you ever met anyone from Wyoming? I thought not.
Well, Wyoming is just north of Colorado. My 3rd grade geography was [...]

I brought Miami with me

I’m the third (or fourth) tech from Miami who has come up here to fill in for the open slot. The others have all had the misfortune of coming up during the worst winter months. Of course, the day I get here is the day AFTER all of the snow has melted and I keep [...]

Welcome from Colorado Springs

This year has been an interesting one. Starting with a New Year’s party held at my own residence for the first time that everyone enjoyed, then some exhaustive training, and a kick ass Megacon, now I find myself in Colorado Springs.
However, I don’t think this is Colorado. For one thing, there’s no snow. I was [...]

Venice Pictures are up

The Venice pictures are going up now. They’re enormous pictures (6 megapixels) so you can appreciate the detail of the architecture. Just hit the link below. I’ll have a full walk-through write up this weekend.

Venice

Walking through Venice

I haven’t posted anything in the past few days because nothing much has happened.  Friday night we went into Venice, and I have some decent pictures.  But Sunday we spent the whole day walking through the city and I have around 60 pictures to show.
But I have to show it to you so you can see [...]

Venice on €30 a day

That’s how much I spent today on food and a bus pass. The funny thing, I have yet to use the three day bus pass. But let me start at the beginning.
Woke up promptly at 7AM and had a nice hotel-sponsored breakfast. We asked the hotel clerk about a bus pass and [...]
