This has been the most amazing fall. I’m back in the US for a couple of days .. and I’m so glad. Normally our fall foliage ‘peaks’ during a 5 day period at the end of September early October..   for some reason this year its very different.. maybe its the unusually warm weather.. or lack of rain. but it’s October 19th and we still have a ton of green leaves.. Whats more is that  the leaves that are there keep changing . what started out as a bunch of dull reds and oranges is still bursting out with pockets of crazy color !. I took a break around 3 to go for a run up Libby’s Lookout with Diane and the dogs.. it was actually warm enough for shorts and t shirts.. again.. kinda crazy for now.. 

 

ok.. I know its boring to look at someone elses lef pictures.. its liek vacation pictures or cat pictures.. or even worse.. baby pictures

 

but I can’t help myslef.. I love where I live

On my way back from Munich.. for a short visit home before going back next week. I am glad to be getting a few days at home with diane and the dogs. I have a panel I’m running at TechJam this Friday.. looking forward to seeing some of my local friends..  Being home seems like a vacation these days

Long productive day here in Munich. Ended in a fun hackathon on a work project.   Took a brief pause to do something really important. Martin programed one of  our Robots to cut the pizza for us.

I wuz gonna blog about something related to the broken microwave in my hotel.. how that forced me out in the streets with my frozen gorgonzola spinach pasta… where i found a hidden microwave behind a chained door.. but I could barely reach it.. which somehow got me in touch with the nice Indian guy who’d accidentally locked himself out of his room with rice cooking on the stove ,, 

 

but then…

           but then……..

                        but then………  I atarteted watching old Joni Mitchell videos on youtube .. 

that led to a bunch of old Frank Zappa videos

which brought back so many memories…

and just the thought of memories brought townes van zandt to mind ..

now I’m sitting here in my hotel room crying by myself quite happily..

…

 

which brings me back to my gorgonzola pasta..
