UVM nature tour

Today after visiting a client I took some photos of the taxidermied animals at MLS as well as trees, flowers, climbers, and the catamount. Check out the slideshow here. A preview of the images, this is a Clematis, if I'm not mistaken:

Bloomarama!

Our front garden has gone insane. Check out a slideshow of what's in bloom (click me).

Here's a teaser photo:

All along the watchtower

The watchtower on top of Old Mill was open to the UVM community yesterday, so I took the opportunity to snap a bunch of pictures of UVM and Burlington on that gorgeous sunny day.

Here's one of the photos:

...and the rest are at my website (click). Enjoy!

Toast to Roger - special guest Roger!

For those seeking the details of the June 17 toast...


Date: Fri, 10 Jun 2005 12:20:02 -0400
From: Stefanie Ploof
Subject: [CIT-STAF] Roger celebration June 17

Hi all,

One workday earlier than I said I'd remind everyone, sorry.

If you are planning to come to the Toast to Roger dinner with special
guests Roger and Sarah Bombardier on Friday, June 17 after work and you do
not see a meeting on your Oracle calendar for the event, please email me
with your intention. I need a head count.

There is a location change. We will be going to a new restaurant called
Taste of Burlington, 112 Lake Street, Burlington (near the waterfront).
It is located where both Isabelle's and O's used to be. Lake Street is
the last right hand turn off College St. (past the Battery St.
intersection). The restaurant is located in the third brick building on
the right hand side after all the new construction. There is a white
archway at the entrance.

Party name is "Stefanie" or "CIT" (either will work).

Reservation time is 5:30pm.

Bring your happy face and a spouse, partner, or friend. (Kids are
welcome, but understand that people will be consuming alcohol and speaking
freely. I give this event an R rating.) Just make sure to send me a
total headcount for your party so that I have an accurate reservation.

I very much look forward to seeing everyone next Friday!

11th annual HSCC Walk (and run) for the Animals

Thanks again to everyone who sponsored us for this year's walk.

Here's a picture of Ripley's groomer, Joanne who participated in the walk.

...and, here's a slideshow of photos from the day. Some are very blurry, but that's because I was walking when I took all the photos. :) Very large, with audio, so maybe use high speed access and headphones? Enjoy!
