My Mapbox squad threw me a bachelorette party in the woods. We relaxed, hiked, ate, drank, and danced.

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of speaking at JekyllConf. My talk, Unconventional use cases for Jekyll, is a love story about Jekyll, and ok, some of the experiments and projects I’ve made with it.

I love the X-Files and to celebrate the new season I created a list of episodes that I think about often.

Today we hiked Bozen Kill Preserve in Altamont. It was muddy, icy, and even muddy-icy combo, but it’s a lovely trail.

Earlier this year, Joni Trythall retweeted something about a new tech conference, ELA Conf, to empower women to pursue leadership roles. There was just something (re: ) about the conference that got me excited, and suddenly I found myself emailing the conference (not even realizing that Joni was on the other end):

Font Library has delicious data packed into a JSON file. I’ve had an urge to see how else I can hack the file with Jekyll and tonight I was up for the challenge.

We took a three-night drive through New England with help from Hotel Tonight.

This weekend my mom and I had the pleasure of attending the Becoming an Outdoors-Woman workshop at Silver Bay. BOW is an international program that focuses on educating and helping women become self-sufficient through outdoors-related skills. It’s a beautiful program with experienced instructors (who donate their time), enthusiastic volunteers, and amazing women from across the country.

Yesterday morning mom and I woke up at 4:45 to catch the morning launch.
