I spent a couple of days following FileMaker’s 2006 Developer Conference in Orlando to explore the surrounding area.
I drove up to Ocala National Forest and then over to the Atlantic coast and down to Cape Canaveral National Seashore.

This is a collection of images from a two week trip to Thailand arranged through BikeHike Adventures. Most of the trip was guided by Daniel and Scott of Smiling Albino but the last four days were on my own in the Krabi region.

A ski trip to Whistler/Blackcomb in British Columbia with Ralph, Thomas, Stephanie, Mike and Nanci turned into a hiking/touring trip in the absence of any significant snow. Sadly, California was getting loads of snow while we were away! And now we will *never* let Ralph live down all his talking up of Whistler that he subjected us to prior to this trip! ;-)

While Glenn and Michele were visiting this past weekend, we decided to go check out the USS Hornet, on permanent display in Alameda. Click through for the gallery of pictures:
Pictures from my first Burning Man experience!
So what is Burning Man? Oh geez. Well… it’s this massive yearly gathering in the high desert north of Reno, Nevada. It’s a festival of art and creativity, of community and self-expression. It’s a temporary city where commerce is not permitted, giving is widespread and people meet each other through their participation in the event. It’s definitely an experience.
The event runs a full week but FileMaker’s Developer Conference always seems to coincide with it. So this year I decided to at least taste a few days of it. Bonnie and the rest of her burning clan were kind enough to let me join them at their camp, “Heaven a la Cart”.
