Revit Architectural

I spent 3 days this week in an intensive Revit training course in the  Columbia Tower (on the 50th floor). Revit is a sophisticated modeling and CAD production software that most companies in the US are using for building design, or will be soon. 

I feel that I am a much more educated and well rounded architect after this experience.

Standard operating procedure with a skuh state of mind. 

Sometimes you return home hoping to shut down the things that were difficult in your past, feeling strong and ready. And then you still aren't.

Sit on the porch in the sun with a beer and pretend it's nice out as the snow swirls. Mom.

So Bryan blew up the the fucking pumpkin.

Climber trails

Climbers want to exude the persona of being environmentally friendly, and good stewards of the areas they use. Frequently we do a good job, picking up other's trash or carpooling to the crag maybe. But one thing we continue to get wrong is the trails we make and use. Climbers take a perverse pleasure in "climbers trails" - which means just walking in a straight line to whatever objective there is. This creates long-lasting erosion problems and terrible trails full of debris. So next time, use the switchback, and save the hillside.

Woweee! Nice trail
