Tim on vacation

Hey guys, rather than leave notes here and there on bugs, I just wanted to drop a central note that I'm going to be on vacation until March 10/11. (We're going to Istanbul.)

It's likely no new features get pushed while I'm gone, but some bugs will get fixed. Even so, we're at full sail with a full crew--Ammar's working on some catalog improvements, Chris H. is working on the app, and Chris C. is working on subjects and add-books updates. I expect that a number of things get pushed shortly after I return to active duty.

Enjoy yourself! I hope you post some pictures.

Will do. :)

>1 timspalding: Oh my, when the cat's away the mice will play, Yipee! Have a wonderful vacation and be safe in all your travels.

I hope it's warmer than it's been in the north-east! Bon voyage!

Some photos :)

Liam is nine already? Sheesh. Time flies.

>6 timspalding: Thanks for sharing; very cool.

Liam's a lucky kid (in addition to being very handsome). When I was nine, I got to go to Wausau, Wisconsin.

Thanks for sharing your photos! Miniatürk looks like a fascinating attraction. Liam looks like he is having a good time!

I'd never have gone to miniaturk if it weren't for having a nine year-old, but it was pretty fun. And it was even a little educational, in context. Also I really enjoy having a magnet with a picture of a model of the real Ayasofya.

I like miniatures. While they can't compare with experiencing the real things, you can still get a good 3D overview.

I kept wanting to play the next hole of golf.

They have put a wonderful model of St. Steven's in Vienna just outside it, actually for the blind, with amazing detail. I often see tour groups discussing the building there before they look at the real church.
