Well, there goes Google+. @keithhannon finally got his wish. It was better there…mostly because most people were on another thing. It would have been interesting to see how the G+ features would have held up under critical mass. Oh well. We should all have our own social spaces that we control anyway.

I would be remiss if I didn’t point you to Killed By Google to take a gander at alllll the things that have met untimely ends. Though, to be fair, many of those products/projects were rolled into things that still exist.

Sunday. The Mount Lowe Canyon Loop. 3 miles? No problem.

I guess we were supposed to turn around at one point. In the image below, red is the intended hike. Blue is what we did. (ignore the long straight line, GPS glitch)

Everett still seemed to enjoy himself. He slept through the hardest climb though (getting out of the canyon).
