Mid-October Lunchtime Walk
Shortly after noon, I looked up from my desk to see a balmy mid-October day inviting me to a lunchtime walk. Who was I to decline? Grabbing my camera, I headed out for a clockwise 1.5 mile walk around Hawthorn Farm. I snapped pictures of fall leaves in between kicking and stomping the acorns scattered…

Commute by Bike in Folsom
I brought my bike along as we deliver Melissa to college so I could bike to work in Folsom. That’s a first for me. I was able to ride along the American River bike trail part of the way, so I took some pictures. I made a mistake, took a wrong turn, and ended up…

Last Day at Jones Farm
It’s my last day at Intel’s Jones Farm campus. Monday, I start at the Hawthorn Farm campus. I don’t think my cube has ever been this clean. No tchotchkes, no loose papers. I even corralled the dust bunnies behind the monitor. Goodbye JF3-2-H6. It’s been fun!

Intel Hawthorn Farm Walking Routes
I’m moving Intel campuses later this week — from Jones Farm to Hawthorn Farm. The Jones Farm campus is great for walking. It’s time for a quick visit to Google maps to see what Hawthorn Farm has to offer. I see what might be nice 1.2 and 1.5 mile walks. :-) I wonder what walking…

My New Cube at Intel’s Hawthorn Farm Campus
Today was the open house for those of us who will be moving into a remodeled floor at Intel’s Hawthorn Farm campus. I went, found my new cube, and took some pictures. It doesn’t look much like the Intel Conan O’Brien visited a while back. No gray walls, no gray cubicles, no blue-gray carpeting. It’s…

The View From 23A
I flew home with Melissa. She was good company and put up with my continual picture taking.
