I don’t know what it is with me these days. I just can’t seem to
find anything particularly interesting or clever to write about.
I do absolutely adore Rhinebeck- all of the little shops, a million
(or less) places to hike, the close proximity to my folks.
I just feel like something is missing, some small part of me was
lost in the move. When I find it, you’ll be the second or third to
know.
I just noticed a couple layout flaws with the current site design;
so I’ll be looking at redoing the design in the coming days. I doubt it
will change significantly, because I kind of like the current look.
So, on the off chance that you’ve noticed anything weird (other than
the search fields not fitting in the box at the right) please let me
know…
Last Saturday, Anna and I drove down to the Holmes residence to
honour Ken for his heroic efforts as COO of our former employer. Ken’s
last day was Thursday, 15 April (mine was 26 February). Although he
hasn’t yet decided what he’ll be doing next, I envy the company that
finally secures his enthusiasm. Had it not been for Ken, many of us
wouldn’t have made it through the day.
Turn-out was good; and Anna commented later that it was plainly
obvious who no longer worked at the company: the alumni (hah!) were
happy and relaxed while the employees looked stressed and ground
down.
I know I’ve been happier in the last month and a half than I have
been at almost any point during the previous year — with the
obvious exception of my wedding day.
Ken and Loren’s little girl Hayden made an appearance and charmed
everyone. I’d brought along my camera just in case she deigned to join
us. That’s her in the photographs above.
