For anyone staying at the Hilton Garden Inn going to dinner Tuesday night, let's say we meet in the lobby by 5:45. We can get organized in cars then. I will have a rental if anyone needs a ride. My cell is 985-774-9276.

My wife and I will be leading a group down the coast to the Monterey Bay Aquarium on the Thursday Morning, leaving the Garden Hilton Inn at 10:45 am. We have 4 free guest passes and are looking into borrowing a few from some friends. We can comfortably transport 3 more adults, 4 if we need to in our Truck. If you are interested in going along, or following in a caravan, please post your interest here.

Hello all,
I tried to join the certified teacher group on google by following the directions in the welcome packet, but I cannot find it. I am a member of several google groups but for some reason I cannot find the one from the welcome packet. Anyone else have these issues?

I love seeing all of the videos you guys have created, I can see there will be a lot of talent in the room on the 25th. I would love for you to share what editing software you used on your videos. I used Studio 10 by Pinnacle and thought it was so-so, terrible to install, and took up a HUGE portion of my hard drive, but it was fairly simple to use with decent features. I have also used ProShow Gold in the past and have liked it. I attempted to do mine with Windows movie maker but felt it was too limiting. I would really like to find a good video editing software that has plenty of features, but isn't overly complex and expensive, know of anything??

The weather in the Bay Area changes in just a few days. Last week 80s - 90s. This week 60s and 70s, and SF was only in the 50s. The Bay Area Marine layer is well established. Evenings can get cool. If you are planning on staying in the City of San Francisco or visiting San Francisco, the weather has been in the mid 50's low 60's. We have what they call Micro Climates, you can drive just 20 minutes and experience as much as a 20 - 30 degree change in temperature as a result of our Marine Layer. Mt. View and Sunnyvale have been in the low to mid 70s and Sunny. Temps are expected to stay about the same for the next 5 days or so. Even if our days climb into the 80s, the evenings cool down as a result of the Marine layer. Bring a sweater or jacket just in case.

"my brother lives there and he said it is usually 85 and sunny but not as muggy
but what does one actually wear to google? I don't want to be over or under dressed" I think Cindy is right. Think about being comfortable. Remember the average age at Google is probably around 30 and there are a lot of jeans and Google t-shirts. But as guests, we should dress in the casual but professional style. Google is right on the Bay, the are likely to be afternoon breezes, which means the evenings can get cool - almost definitely jacket, sweater, or sweatshirt time if we eat dinner outdoors. Having said that, tonight is unusually warm and my husband and I just finished eating dinner on our patio wearing t-shirts and shorts. Still, better to be prepared and dress in layers.

It has been warm here the past few days. 85 - 90. The nights are cooler, but not so cold you need a heavy jacket. A light sweater or sweatshirt should do. I've been wearing shorts all week, even in the evenings, and it has been just fine.
