My company sent me to the 3-city ”Research Triangle” in North Carolina this fall to attend a class on high-speed digital design.  Aside from the class, the trip was an opportunity for me to visit a state I’d never seen before!  Although I didn’t get much time away from the southern comfort of the Hilton hotel that I stayed in and attended the class in, I did manage to get out for at least one night; I visited Gennette and her boyfriend Pepe for dinner (featuring half-price bottles of wine!) and a tour of the Chapel Hill campus.

This photo was taken at the Hilton I stayed at.  The hotel had a large open-air porch with rocking chairs for guests to sit and relax in – a really nice touch of southern charm!
