  • Some weekdays in Boulder

    Dating back to before my time at the company, there was a tradition to eat at Ted’s Montana Grill following the departure of a coworker (I was there ten years – long standing tradition).

  • Montreal on my mind

    A prompt trip recap? Unheard of! Yes, my Japanese recap is still in note form… I went there in 2005. I went to Montreal this past weekend for what was the final bachelor party in my group for the foreseeable future. There’s still one to go, but, well, Jakedog. To recount the trips over the […]
