Here are some additional photos from my trip with Annie at Harpers Ferry. I’m going to have to print out some of these photos at some point.

Wider views of two rivers merging into one.

Hiking deep inside the forest.

Standing on the Maryland overlook checking out a stellar view of Virginia (left) and West Virginia (middle).

Another view from a different vantage point. The little black dots in the sky are actually giant gnats devastating our experience. Gah.

A secret little nook off the trails on the ground level.

Standing on the borderline of 3 states (Virginia, West Virginia and Maryland). Crossing the bridge back towards Harpers Ferry town.

Lovely trail that extends along the entire river, filled with the tranquil sounds of the wind and birds.

Last week we went to Great Falls, and thought it couldn’t get any better…

Annie and I went to Harpers Ferry in West Virginia this weekend and had the chance to check out some incredible landscapes. We hiked all the way up to Maryland Heights, which gives you a view of West Virginia, Virginia and Maryland. Here are some photos:

We had another hackathon this past thursday. This time, I teamed up with a group of folks to design the quiet room. Last time I worked on the Game Room, and it turned out to be a wild success.

This time we came in 2nd place for the people’s choice award. It’s nice to get recognized. Huge kudos to our team: Dullah, Elizabeth, Evelyn, Foo, Ifdy, Jim, Laura, Ror, and Tiffany. Oh yeh, thanks Annie for helping me pick out some paint. ^_^

There’s an article that describes if you’re addicted to Diet Coke. Sadly, I was pretty addicted to regular coke prior to this year.

I probably was guilty of all of the 25 signs indicated in the article. Kind of embarrassing. The good news is that I haven’t had any soda since the beginning of this year. Anyone else addicted? Hat tip: Annie

I’ve added a new toy to my desk. It’s the War Machine Iron Man suit. Thanks to my cousin Eddit for importing here from Hong Kong.

Very cool site. Always great to put things in perspective. Make sure to keep clicking “Okay +”. Carl Sagan always says it best, here.
