Found out just hours before I actually left that I was to head to California.  Been here for three days now working non-stop.  Many good meetings, much hecticness and much information gathered.  Will be back on Saturday (probably).  Should be on a plane heading to Toronto this time tomorrow and then back in Waterloo at around 9 am on Saturday.  Much code to write once I return, many problems to solve.

Weather is very good here but no time to enjoy it.  I get to work at about 0830 PT and head back at around 2300 PT so there's little time to do anything except work away.  Environment is very relaxing though.
