We moved over the weekend to a new campus. My commute went from 1 mile or 5 minutes to 5 miles or 20 minutes. Maybe I'll just walk to the main campus and take a shuttle to the new Advanta campus.

So this is how dark and cloudy it was this morning when I arrived. The promotion picture of course shows the building in a sunny, cloudless day. ;o)

The space is state of the art with lots of space to meet, collaborate, and share a cup o' joe. But the offices are smaller. Still, in my first day I'm not getting headaches from the off gassing that happened in other new buildings I've moved into. And I can still listen to my music without bothering anyone, so far.

My manager Kate peeked in to see how I was doing and remind me that there was a free lunch today. She's a class act and one of the reasons that I'm working on this team. The CRM product and team was another reason that I came here from Visual Studio in 2006.

Oh, and I'm on the fifth floor so I'll start doing the stairs again. This morning I've walked up and down three times so far. :o)
