Yelp Your Way to a Fun Start to the Day

Thursday, July 29th, 2010

When traveling, we often use Yelp to find a fun local coffee shop with great reviews to get a flavor of the local vibe.

It is fun to explore a town and not stick to the typical Starbucks for coffee.  While visiting Portland and Bend recently, we discovered two fun new cafes Bean and Tree in Portland (serves a delicious Lavender Latte) and Backporch Coffee Roasters in Bend (roast their own beans on-site and make a great Cappuccino).

Results from latest Social SummerHill Poll

Friday, April 16th, 2010

A smaller group took our latest poll, but looks like most of us are commuting an hour to work.  Makes the convenience of some of our communities seem very appealing.  Merimont and Rosewood are minutes from BART.  Redwood Gate, Satake Estates and Village Square are just minutes from Caltrain.  Is it time to make your commute easier?

The next poll is up now, where is your favorite Farmer’s Market?

What would it be like if…..

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

What would it be like if the invention of the telephone came after email?

Recently I was talking with someone about technology.  We were trying to figure out how much is too much of a good thing?

And this led to a conversation about a conversation that they had with someone else about would happen if the order of technology changed?   Their friend shared that if the telephone came after email, it might go something like this  “cool, I can talk to someone live!”
