August vacation
I've been neglecting this blog for a while. Mostly it's because we've been so busy putting the final touches on Yukon, getting it ready to go out the door. We're also starting futures planning and discussions for the next version. Nothing set in stone yet, just discussing ideas. If you have some ideas you'd like to see us incorporate into the product in the next version or just some things you'd like us to improve upon, let us know. Some of you have already started giving helpful suggestions. Thank you very much. We're listening.
I've also been busy writing and this week, spending some time with my son Tyson and his friend Eric, on a road trip through the great northwest. A couple of days back we spent the day in Yosemite, picking up the highlights. I would have liked to spend more time, maybe done some hiking and camping there. But, it's not that kind of trip. As it was, we camped one night there and I practically froze. "It's the middle of August" I thought as I tossed in my summer sleeping bag in the car. Funny, but I didn't think about the fact that Yosemite is ~7000 feet above sea level. As it turns out, the temperature approaches freezing at night, and so did mine. Oh well, all part of the "fun".
Here's a picture from the trip. Not the best, but certainly representative of the kinds of views we're taking in. I would have liked to have waited around for magic hour and more favorable light, but, it's not that kind of trip either.
Today, it's Redwood National Park. Then up the Oregon Coast for as long as we can stand the twisties.
See the final slide
deck. :)
