Heading down to Mexico

I'm driving down to Mexico with Mom and Dad to spend time working on the Islander 32 and to do some sailing.

It's 80 degrees in Tuscon AZ, we escaped CO just in time to avoid a forecasted Spring snowstorm. It has been a leisurely drive in Dad's somewhat cramped Toyota Tacoma. The wind has been with us the whole way.

Tomorrow we will be heading South through Nogales onto San Carlos in the state of Sonora, Mexico.

Here's a picture of Dad and I at a rest area in New Mexico taken today.

My first JavaOne

I'm very fortunate to work in a profession where continuing education is paid for by the company., this includes certifications and conferences.

This year I'm going to my very first JavaOne. I'm going to the one in San Fran. It is one of the largest Java conferences and is put on by Sun Microsystems, the originator of the language.

Shameless, I tell ya!

Alllll Aboard!

Last Saturday, Jeremy and I took the Ski Train from Denver up to Winter Park Resort. This has been an annual benefit my work has provided since I started. Thanks Abacus!




It was sunny at times and very windy, but not too cold. We enjoyed some powder in the trees on Mary Jane.

Let it snow!

The heavens opened and dumped pretty white flakes on the front range this past week. Golden, where we live, received just under 3 feet of snow. The snow from this year's blizzard wasn't as moisture packed as the last one we had in 2003.

The melting has just begun -it will be a while before our yard looses its snow-sea.

Here are some pictures:
