My KDE Desktop on Kubuntu

Here's a screen shot of my linux desktop. I use a debian based distribution from Ubuntu at http://www.ubuntulinux.org/ . If you're interested in the different distributions then http://distrowatch.com/ is an informative site to visit. The terminal you see in the center of the desktop is running protein folding at home distributed computing software from http://folding.stanford.edu/ . Figured my computer might as well be doing something useful when I'm not using it. This is what my desktop looks like.

Our house on December 30th, 2003

These two photos of our house were taken December 30th, 2003. I wonder what December 30th will look like this year! We live in Federal Way, WA.

Mt. Rainier, Sunrise side, in August of 2003

This is a photo I took from the Sunrise section of Mt. Rainier in August of 2003. More info on Mt. Rainier at http://www.nps.gov/mora/ . In 2003 we hiked different areas around Mt. Rainier for three months almost every weekend. The weather was this nice almost everytime we went. The mountain is practically in our backyard. We're very lucky. The best part about living near Seattle is when you're driving around the south sound the moutain appears to come out of nowhere. We're always going around different turns and saying, "Wow, look at that. The mountain look incredible today!"
