Styx and Stones

More snow has arrived here in Wisco. Apparently this is more snow than they have had in the last few years here. Still nice temperature-wise though, with highs in the upper 20s (the locals think that this is cold -- HA!). Perfect temp for outdoor winter biking.

Had a good weekend. Started it off by going to the Trek cocktail party with Heather and my boss and his wife. That was a really fun time. Good food/drinks, really cool house, and lots of people. There were too many people there to see everyone, but I did recognize Zap Espinoza and Bob Roll. Bob had a Santa hat and a beard. I said hi to him and he said HOWDY. Sorry Dave, I didn't ask Burke if they were coming out with an adventure frame, maybe some other time. ;)

Tonia and Trent got here on Fri night, so we played with them all weekend. Went to the dog park, to Trek, and roamed around SP and Madison. It was most enjoyable. Will be nice to be able to see everyone again in a few weeks for Xmas. Andy got here on Sun night for his interview on Tues, which he said went well. Who knows, maybe he will be moving here in a short while... He came to Trek on Mon to eat lunch with me, and I gave him a tour of the place. It was a busy, but fun, couple of days with all of them at our house.

I ordered a new desktop computer yesterday. That's exciting. Dell came to Trek to show off some of their new machines, and they were offering some bigger discounts and coupons than we normally get at Trek. So, being that we were planning on getting a new one soon anyway, I ordered it up! Should be fast! If any of you are looking to get a new computer, Dell offers this 'industry discount' to both friends and family of Trek employees as well (savings up to 12% off of retail, in addition to coupons up to $200 off). So if you're interested, just send me an email and I can send you the website link and password. :)
