What are you doing May 25th & 26th, 2012?

Jared, will you be representing Minnesota and Shoegnome at the event?

Sadly no. Once again I can’t make it. And once again I am horribly jealous. But at least during that weekend, I’ll be starting my own crazy ArchiCAD-fueled summer adventure. Here’s a hint: my wife has an summer internship with a company outside of Minnesota. So we’ll be a little closer to the Graphisoft Headquarters in North America. But more on that later. A lot to do before the big official announcement.
