Took this picture while getting in chute for start of the 100 mile ride. It was about the only dry moment during the whole ride. :-/ Good ride though.

It was a nice day today. We had a good brunch at National Mechanics, visited the new Apple Store on Walnut Street, and Capogiro's on 13th. Walking around Center City reminded me of when we lived in the city. Nice to visit, but I am glad we moved out.

The family attended the Wharton UI Conference this year--Amy as an attendee, Cole and I worked it. Here are three pics taken by Scott Spitzer. Cole has had some interest in HTML5, so he wound up sitting in on that session. Overall, the conference was wonderful. I learned a lot and especially enjoyed the keynotes by Cory Ondrejka and Don Norman.

This is my desk; the place where all of the magic happens. :-) I moved my desk closer to the window for better light and got rid of anything that was a distraction. The shadow box, with all of the Marine stuff, was made by my buddy Edwin. It takes me back to the six years I spent wearing camouflage.

Here is a picture of all of us, in our living room, on the last night of their visit.

Fat Bastard wine. Yup, that's what I'm drinking right now. :-)

Amanda interviewing Steve for the upcoming Wharton UI conference.

This is a pic of a very exhausted dog. Amy and I took her to the park to wear her out. She is constantly wanting to play. It is a rare moment when she doesn't want to annoy the crap out of us wanting to play. The heat, combined with a morning run and throwing the ball around in the park, made her one tired puppy. Hah!

My co-worker, Amanda, told me about this store. It is awesome. They have the best junk ever! I even found a screen protector and case for my iPad. Only $5 each. (Yes, I shaved off all of my hair. Hair is over-rated.)

Notice anything peculiar about the photo? ;-)
