Got a few photos back from the photographer from Saturday’s photo session near the Muttart Conservatory. Apparently the Muttart doesn’t allow professional photography shoots unless they’re booked in advanced, so we ended up heading out onto some of the nearby walking trails to take photos. I think it worked out better. The weather was great and the scenery on the trails was very nice with the leaves starting to turn colour.
This is the first time we’ve all been together in the same place at the same time in about 9 years.
It was a good day, and it was good being back together again even though it was only for the day.
On September 30, I will become a naturalized US Citizen. Connie and I will be celebrating the occasion over at Fiery Ron’s Home Team BBQ in West Ashley. You’re welcome to stop by at your leisure to join us for drinks and some of their yummy BBQ. We’ll be there from 7:30 PM to 9ish. Stop by and hang out with us a bit!
Just a little over a week to go before the 6th annual Southeast Linuxfest kicks off. The final schedule is now out and I’m looking forward to catching a few of them as I roam around being the photographer.
New this year is the Craft Beer Bottle Share (not an official part of SELF though). Bring a bunch of your favourite craft beers along, share them with other craft beer afficionados, and try the brews other people bring.
Still time to register, and as usual SELF is free to attend.
After much anticipation, registration for Southeast Linuxfest 2014 is now open!
As usual, SELF is free to attend (registration recommended). There’s also the supporting attendee package for $65 which gets you lunch, a shirt, drink tickets for the parties and the undying gratitude of the organizers.
There will also be ARRL VEs administering the amateur radio license tests (I’ll be one of them) so if you’ve been thinking about getting or upgrading your license, now’s your chance. You still have a month to study!
This year’s schedule includes Puppet training, an information security track put on by BSides Charlotte, BSDA and LPI certification exams in addition to the regular SELF tracks.
Book your hotel soon, because the $99/night SELF rate expires May 29.
