Bike highways are probably the only types of highways I can get behind. I was reading about a 100 km bike highway in Germany that's going to be built. The path is going to have priority at every crossing it meets, or a separated right of way if it's possible. It sounds amazing, I want to ride on it.

It also made me think of the Erie Canal trail that I've never taken before, from Buffalo to Glen Falls. (e:yesthatcasey), when are we going to ride this?


Also there is a city bike planning meeting down at GoBike's offices in the innovation center today at 6pm! So ride your ass down and get involved.

Are the streets are paved with chicken wings. Gross.

Last week I started my new full time job on the clinical IT team at Roswell - sad to not be working with Paul anymore, but it's freaking awesome that I am working at Roswell full time.

There's already so many interesting projects lined up. It sounds like even the projects are going to have more programming that I initially thought. I even am getting a Mac computer to work on - that's a first. And I get to keep the longer 4 days, half day Friday schedule.

Looks like the civil engineering books did come in handy

Fancy Cisco IP phone also - no second monitor yet though

Someone even left an early Valentine at my desk

(e:paul), (e:terry) and I decided to go for a walk - we needed a destination so we chose a craft show at a church in Parkside. Give me another 60 years before I do that again. Too many decorative soaps and useless pottery.

The walk was nice. I notice new things every time we walk down the street.


Eternally under construction

It's a long way from Los Angeles - how did it end up at this house?

We stopped to check out the ultra creepy and abandoned Millard Fillmore. The inside looks straight out of a horror movie.








This old house across from the hospital is also run down - I'm guessing the hospital owned it?
It is pretty cute on the inside though. I can't believe how they're letting it go




We kept on going through the cemetary when (e:yesthatcasey) and Masumi met up with us. In a car :(


Resting places

On Friday night I stopped home at my parent's house for pizza and Thanksgiving leftovers. My mom's old student teacher, Janis, came to visit from Singapore with her husband Joachim and his sister Auerial, who is visiting from Finland. It's probably the most geograhic diversity that's ever been in that house.
Greg, who I went to grade and high school with came over as well. My mom claims Janis is her new favorite daughter.
