Off to New York City this week to help out with gdgt’s east coast launch party on Thursday. It’s been awhile since I’ve been to NYC (last visit was in 2007) and I’m looking forward to it. Unfortunately, there will be little time to play this time.
Weather is supposed to be good though!
And apparently, I do need to make time to check out Shake Shack. Their burgers are supposed to be pretty good.
The Longest Way 1.0 – one year walk/beard grow time lapse from Christoph Rehage on Vimeo.
I posted this on Laughing Squid last month but apparently forgot to post it here.
In November 2007, Christoph Rehage set foot from Beijing, China with a goal of walking to Berlin, Germany, a distance of over 4,500 miles. He created a short video called “The Longest Way 1.0“, documenting his journey over the course of a year and featuring self portrait photographs he took each day on his trip that shows his hair and beard getting longer.
Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada
Last weekend, I returned to San Francisco after a two week road trip across the western United States and Canada.
Some of the places we visited included:
Some select photos from part of the trip can be found below.

Bitterroot River in Hamilton, Montana.
Flathead Lake, Montana.
Columbia Valley near Radium Hot Springs, Canada.
Entering Kootenay National Park, Canada.

We’re getting to crazy-mad-scientist lengths here.

This place is so beautiful! It’s a little cold and rainy though.

We’ve finally arrived in Canada! Hello maple leaves, grizzly bears, and universal health care.
We stayed at Radium Hot Springs last night and ended up taking a dip in the warm pools. Of course, the fact that the town is named after a radioactive element found in uranium ore deposits is kind of unsettling. But hey, at least we’ll have a healthy glow! Also, on the way up to Canada, we drove past Flathead Lake in Montana, which I haven’t been to in nearly 10 years. Beautiful place and it totally reminds me of Lake Tahoe. Here are a few photos from yesterday’s adventures.
Today we finally head into Banff!
Random photos shot with my iPhone 3GS.
And while we’re here, we have universal health care! 🙂It’s been about 10 years since I was here with some friends at their parent’s summer house.
It totally reminds me of Lake Tahoe.

Stopped by the River City Grill outside of Missoula, Montana for lunch.
Next stop? Canada. Captain, plot a course for Banff!
