Grand Rapids
I hope I get to come back to work with this client again. They are very smart and very good people. And funny.
This is a nice city. It's big enough that there are nice restaurants and stores, but small enough that the people here are not all stressed out all the time .. everyone is nice - from the people at the hotel, to wait staff at restaurants to the techie kind of guys I'm working with.
The building I'm working in has won all sorts of architectural awards because it is a great environment for working. Only a couple of floors, but very high ceilings and glass all around. Lots of natural light, and some very cool fixtures.
In fact, the building I'm working in is featured here. It was the prototype for a company called Workstage (not who I am working with - in fact, the people I'm working with just moved into the building).
It's very different from the normal cubicle farm!

So did they give you a tour of the "Pyramid" too?
I frequently drive by there when I take the Henry home to the other side of town.
I would have been more gracious about you visiting GR, but its been a messy week.

I will be returning, at least one time, maybe more. So, I can bug 'the thomas' then!
And it has been a really good week!
