Windows 7 Beta Fish

I’ve been trying out the Windows 7 Ultimate beta. The default wallpaper is a Siamese fighting fish (“betta” fish, get it?) Which gave me an idea! One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish…

Alpha fish, beta fish, gamma fish.

This cereal is basically lots of little choc chip bikkies.

On Christmas Eve, Jon and I went up to Snoqualmie for a snowboarding lesson. It snowed for the whole day and there was about a foot of powder on the slopes.

Driving up the I-90 to Snoqualmie Pass.

Jono drove.

We had a bit of trouble getting out, but we didn't end up needing the chains.

That night we got a few interns together and went to Claim Jumper for dinner.

John took on a gigantic plate of ribs.

I had the "Widow Maker Burger".

"Ch-antler-ier"

Chris, Jeff, David, John and John.

We split the 6 layer "Mother Lode" cake between 6 people.

On Christmas Day I made a snowman.

He only lasted a couple of days.

Going...

...going...

Gone!

Then on Christmas Day, Jeff did a roast for everyone.

John, Jeff and John.

Then trifle, jelly and crumble for dessert.

On New Years’ Eve, we went in to Lincoln Square in Bellevue to watch the Space Needle fireworks.

Someone let off a firework in front of Lake Washington.

More fireworks.

Yay long exposure.

Hanging out in the Microsoft cafeteria on the top floor.

Then next weekend we hit up Snoqualmie again.

The Impala made it back up no worries.

Pretty solid snowfall up there!

Tom heading up to the slopes.

I don't think these things actually go below "Moderate".

A crow...

And a mountain.

The slopes are open until 10pm.

Slopes at night again.
