Last week, I published my first app. I had spent about five hours on it. It worked, but usability was poor, and functionality was limited, but I really only intended it for my own use.

Over this period Bryn’s speech has really taken off. She’s forming sentences and making sense most of the time.

Being a huge supporter of multimodal transportation, quickly upon moving to Vermont I became involved in our town’s organization on the subject. The group is still in its infancy, but we’re now online! This post is mostly to announce my participation and the fact I created the site. Yay!
