Mark’s Retirement Party

Mark organized a party to celebrate his retirement from FileMaker/Claris, gathering together old and new coworkers at K1 Speed in Santa Clara for some electric go kart racing.  The go kart racing was fun but it was really great to see everybody again!

I rented their provided cameras for the first two of our three runs.  The first run wasn’t captured (they didn’t start it properly) but here’s our second run:

Dim Sum Time

Here’s some pictures from another dim sum lunch with friends and coworkers from FileMaker, this past Monday (5/19). Frank was actually overpowered this time by one of the servers and we ended up with a whole extra round of food we had to take with us.  Click through for the gallery:
