I'll be speaking at the upcoming meeting of Refresh Denver on December 17th. The topic of the night will be "A jQuery Introduction, with Drupal and Qcodo".

If you're in the area, we'd love to have you attend. Matt and Chip have done a great job with the Refresh group. I was able to attend the November meeting and thoroughly enjoyed it.

I attended the Denver {re}Fresh Meeting this last Monday night. Here's a quick wrap up of what happened if you weren't able to go.

Many thanks to Matt and Chip for putting this together. I've attended a few of the user groups around Denver, and reFresh is off to a great start.

I'll be giving the presentation on jQuery at the next meeting in December. Details are forthcoming.

Denver Weather

I woke up this morning to 4 inches of snow at our house. This is exactly the reason I love living in Denver. Yesturday afternoon, I walked our dog in 60 degree weather wearing jeans and a t-shirt. This morning, I wake up to wonderful snow.

The thing I love about snow is the calm it brings to any scene. The dampening effect of snow is beautiful.

I took a few images before running off to work this morning of our back yard.
