Returning from Paris
Posted on March 26th, 2007 07:18 PM | Comments (0) | Pings (0)So I’m back from Paris. When I uploaded a picture of my luggage to Flickr yesterday and wrote, “Coming back with more than i left with”, I guess it meant more than I thought.
Spring Break
Posted on March 15th, 2007 04:45 PM | Comments (2) | Pings (0)I’m off to Paris for 10 days to spend time with Kat (and her friends, and a weekend with Leo, and his friends). Leo, Kat and I are going to roadtrip around Belgium this weekend, and I’m hoping to seek out some great Belgian beer and get a chance to take some photos.
Shooting in Boston
Posted on January 21st, 2007 01:43 PM | Comments (1) | Pings (0)I spent all day Saturday in Boston shooting photos with Matt. I rented a Nikon PC 85mm lens for the weekend and we played around with it all around town. We had more than just the tilt/shift lens, though.
The Wedding
Posted on December 10th, 2006 05:20 PMPings (0)I’m on my way home after spending the weekend in LA for Lauren and Michal’s wedding. Unfortunately, because I was in the wedding party, I don’t have any photos of the ceremony, and have only a few of the reception. I do have some nice ones from before the ceremony, though. This next week is going to be incredibly hectic, but I’ll try to get some of them online soon.
Earlier this month I spent a few days in Maine visiting friends and enjoying the scenery. Unfortunately, the foliage couldn’t seem to make up its mind, and the trees were mostly either green or brown.
Two Weeks in California
Posted on August 17th, 2006 02:57 AMPings (0)This most recent trip to California is coming to a close, but it’s been a great trip. I spent four days in San Diego with my parents, three siblings, two brothers-in-law, four nephews and two nieces. We had a great time visiting the San Diego Wild Animal Park and Sea World, paddle boating around and watching fireworks across Mission Bay, and attending a Luau.
Kat and I got back from Maryland last night where we moved in a car-load of boxes to my new apartment. The entire round trip from Providence took us about 32 hours. The new apartment is decent — certainly workable for only nine months. I’ll be back there in a couple of weeks to finish moving in and start classes.
Birthdays and Baptisms
Posted on July 6th, 2006 01:41 AMPings (0)I spent the weekend (with Kat) in Santa Monica where my two nieces were celebrating a birthday and a baptism.
ESWC Wrapup
Posted on June 18th, 2006 09:22 AMPings (0)ESWC went really well. The Scripting workshop was quite good, making me a bit sad that I missed last years’ at which I was supposed to present a paper. The conference proper was also good, but the hallway (beach) track was far superior to most of the presented talks.
Montenegro
Posted on June 9th, 2006 07:49 AMPings (0)Maybe the way to kick-start this weblog again is to mention that I’m at the airport. Again.
Back from Japan
Posted on April 11th, 2006 02:05 PMPings (0)So I’m back from Japan. I have been for about a week, actually. It took a while to get caught up on sleep, though. I haven’t had time to publish all the photos yet, but I’ve put some highlights in a (Flickr) Japan Set. Expect more soon.
Spring Travels
Posted on March 20th, 2006 03:47 PMPings (0)Last week, Kat and I spent a few days of spring break in Vermont, doing all the Vermont things we could think of. Also, I leave tomorrow for two weeks visiting Kabir in Japan.
Albany and Saratoga
Posted on January 9th, 2006 02:07 AMPings (0)I spent the weekend with Kat visiting Tim in Albany.
Thanksgiving (with Photos)
Posted on November 25th, 2005 10:46 PMPings (0)Last Saturday we had a great early Thanksgiving in Providence before everyone left town to be with their families, and this week I’ve spent the actual Thanksgiving holiday with family in DC. Photos are now online.
ISWC Wrap-up and Pictures
Posted on November 15th, 2005 10:38 PMPings (0)I’m finally back from Ireland (and England) and ISWC. There are pictures online from the conference and my weekend in London.
Another month, another post from the airport. I’m off to Ireland for a week to attend ISWC, and then to London for a weekend to visit Leo. I’ll try to post updates while I’m there, and I’ll post pictures upon my return.
Keene Pumpkins
Posted on October 22nd, 2005 10:12 PMPings (0)Matt, Kat and I spent the day at the Keene Pumpkin Festival.
Sea Kayaking
Posted on October 16th, 2005 07:10 PMPings (0)Just got back from a weekend of Sea Kayaking in Maine. It was cold, wet, and windy. I thoroughly enjoyed myself.
Just got back from spending the weekend in Albany with Tim and Gary.
LA and Providence
Posted on September 25th, 2005 08:42 PMPings (0)New photos are now online from the Cnation mini-reunion at Sunset and the Housewarming at our new place in Providence.
At the Airport Again
Posted on September 12th, 2005 02:09 PMPings (0)I’m back at the airport. Again. Back to LA for a week. I’ve got lots of work to do while there, and lots of other things to take care of, but I promise, I’m going to start posting more often.
Back to LA
Posted on August 11th, 2005 04:00 AMPings (0)Well, I’m off again, this time to LA. Again. I’ll be there through Sunday night, hanging with a critical mass of the samo-fools.
On a train to Washington
Posted on July 28th, 2005 10:46 PMPings (0)I’m on a train heading for Washington right now, and tomorrow morning I’ll be driving to Roanoke for an extended family gathering. I’ll be back on a train on Sunday night, and back in Providence on Monday morning.
OK. Everyday since getting back, I’ve promised myself that I’d post an update. And sure enough, every day I’d not do it. But today is different. Today is the day that I get back into the habit of posting. I swear.
New Orleans
Posted on July 8th, 2005 09:16 PMPings (0)We’ve been hanging out in the French Quarter and enjoying the night-life of New Orleans. We leave tomorrow heading back to Providence, but New Orleans has been tons of fun.
The Southland
Posted on July 6th, 2005 09:47 PMPings (0)We made it through Texas! Now for a few days in New Orleans. We’ve staying a couple of blocks from Bourbon Street, so this should be tons of fun. I’ll try to upload some pictures before we leave for home on Saturday.
Simon’s been doing a pretty good job at updating his weblog during our drive, and I’ve been concentrating most of my energy on the driving, so I’ll let him take care of that. But just wanted to post an update saying we’re in Nevada for the night, we’ll be in Simon’s hometown tomorrow night, and Santa Monica on Friday night.
On the Road Again
Posted on June 25th, 2005 02:56 PMPings (0)Simon and I have started our cross-country journey.
Back in LA
Posted on June 17th, 2005 10:48 AMPings (0)I’m just leaving the house to head for Boston, and from there I’ll be flying to LA for the weekend. If you need me, call the cell. Otherwise, enjoy the weekend and I’ll be back on Sunday night.
The Breweries
Posted on May 2nd, 2005 02:03 AMPings (0)We ended up visiting Shipyard in Portland, Maine, Otter Creek/Wolavers in Middlebury, Vermont, and Magic Hat in Burlington, Vermont. We also stopped at the Great Lost Bear for lunch on Wednesday. Here’s a rundown of where we went, and what we drank.
Walking Miles in the Sand
Posted on March 5th, 2005 12:46 AMPings (0)I’m back from the desert.
The Desert
Posted on February 26th, 2005 02:06 AMPings (0)Off to LA today for a week in Death Valley. Tons of pictures upon my return. Promise.
In contrast to my flight yesterday, here’s a list of some of the more interesting people I’ve had to sit next to while traveling.
Driving in LA
Posted on January 4th, 2005 01:58 AMPings (0)I never thought I’d say this, but I’m going to miss driving in LA. I still hate the driving-in-LA part, but for the past two weeks I’ve been driving a brand new Toyota Prius, and it’s an amazing thing.
Back in LA
Posted on December 21st, 2004 02:52 AMPings (0)Here’s a photo of Logan from the plane while we were waiting to be de-iced.
On My Way Home
Posted on December 20th, 2004 11:02 AMPings (0)Despite being a complete zoo, the check-in process at Logan was amazingly efficient, and I’m now waiting on my flight back to LA.
On a whim, drove to Newport yesterday and walked the Cliff Walk all the way to Rosecliff and back.
