The plane pics in the beginning are of Logan Airport in BOS and I centered mostly on the town of Winthrop where I spent my beginning portion of my 20 odd years. I can easily pick out my dads house when in the air. I think thats cool.
I stayed at the Willard Inter-Continental Hotel on Penn Ave. Quite nice accomadations in the King VIP suite. Prolly never get that again lol. But come on....A personal massage/manacure for $1250 ? I'll pass. I dont think I could have expensed that. Something about someone else touching my toes bothers me.
I had to move some servers from one location on penn ave few blocks from white house to another site closer to the International Monetary Fund building (where all the protests take place). The new site is much bigger than the old is being built to suit for my employer. The bomb proof lower portion of the building was pointed out to me. I never saw such thick glass. I also would rather not test it either. I bet its 'lresistant' not 'proof'.
Anyways the pics of the data center is of the old loc and the new.
Before my departure I walked around some of the landmarks and took a few digi photos...but mostly I took film shots with my canon ae-1 program and nikon fg with assorted lenses. I sorta miss film photography...I use to take some nice shots when I was wee high to a grasshopper. My first camera was a kodak brownie I believe - the one that shot flash shots with a bulb ! one shot per bulb.
The plane shots leaving are of the dc area of course...and en route to boston I took pics of the statue of liberty...cant make that out in the shots but easily visible from the air 33k feet. And recognizable is manhattan and I could easily see the empire state building - it even looks tall from 33k feet ! And arriving back in logan.
