A photo of Capital Tea on South Broadway.
Note the pretty planters with nice plants in them.

I've been to Capital Tea before, but today I'm writing from Capital Tea as I came here for an afternoon work session. So, this is testament to their WiFi which works fine for me.
Today I had a delicious iced chai - unsweetened as the milk in there provided enough sugar for my tastes.
Also, they announced some new Fall hours - I'm not sure how long these will last, but they're valid now.
Monday: Closed
Tuesday-Friday: 7am to 4pm
Saturday and Sunday: 11am to 4pm
They also freshened up the front since the last time I was here. Visitors are now greeted by some planters that have potato vines spilling out of them, some nice little pink and purple flowers, and tall cattails. Delightful.

So, we had another wine tasting night and it was delicious. This time, being the end of summer, we had white wines from a Spanish speaking country (or Portugal, cause hey, I love me a Portugese Vinho Verde). Anyway, after the fiasco last time where everyone's favorite was the last bottle ordered this time we let people try out wines in any order they wanted...with a slight exception...one of the people bringing wine forgot buy until the day of, and they purchased a warm bottle so we threw it in the fridge for a while. And we didn't get it out until the end. Guess which bottle won? The one that was in the fridge and that we drank last.
Damn the man.

Today I mentioned my fascination with IKEA stores opening in Denver. A friend was talking about how she wanted some new office furniture - Room and Board felt too expensive for what she needs and Scandinavian Design was her best choice. What should she do? I recommended IKEA and lamented the fact that we didn't have one...

Search Engine Strategies is a major conference for search engine people. It's coming to Denver in September. Too bad the agenda is so weak.
I'm not planning to go...but I've got to at least mention it.

So, someone mentioned among my complaints about the lack of Ikea in Colorado that we also are missing Trader Joe's - a west coast mainstay for low cost, high quality shoppers.

BarCamp Denver is coming up soon. It will be what we make of it - more of a Do-ocracy than anything else I know.
It should be a great time. I plan to present my favorite technology of the moment - <a href="http://drupal.org>Drupal and if I can get off my buttocks perhaps write and show off one of the modules I've been thinking about writing.
