Yesterday was Google Chicago’s summer picnic at The Green at Grant Park. There was lots of food and drinks and mini golf. Pretty much everyone sucked at mini golf, but part of the reason was that there were tons of kids running all around grabbing balls and stuff. Yeh, that’s my excuse. I played a game with Dick and Jessica and I think I came in last. It is a really tough course. No edges, so the ball rolls into flowerbeds and onto the next green and everywhere.

This was our last night out as FeedBurner. We rented some space at Carnivale and gorged ourselves on Latin food and drinks. Dick toasted each employee. The toasts started out completely proper and nice but by the end of the night they were more like roasts! The party was fun and everyone is excited for the future, but there was still that twinge of sadness that our little group is all grown up.

Later on we went to Carol’s Pub because it was Thursday and that means karaoke at Carol’s! paulbaker wrote my name down for a song, but luckily I escaped around 1 a.m. before my turn came up.

The rest of my photos from the night are on FeedBurner’s Flickr photostream.

I have quite a backload of photographs and posts that I just haven’t had time to go through and do anything with. So, sorry for the lateness!

Two Thursdays ago, FeedBurner had a party for clients and potential clients at Carnivale. It was really fun and less awkward than we’d joked about, you know, with 15 engineers who like to stare at their shoes at parties in attendance. I’ve never had dinner at Carnivale, but I’ve been to a couple parties there and the food, drinks and service have always been fantastic. Here are some more photos from that night.
