We’re at about the six month mark for the Esri office closure. It’s been strange, not seeing everybody every day. Two days ago, though, an Outlook invitation arrived from Cathy:
What: Esri Calgary Luncheon – social distanced
When: Thursday, September 17th, 2020 – 11:30am to 1:30pm
Where: Confluence Plaza – St. Patrick’s Island Park – right off the Calgary Zoo West Parking lot – 1300 12 St. NE
Lunch: Will have individual Box Lunches and Drinks – key here is to social distance, but have a chance to see everyone in the Calgary office.
Let me know if you require a special lunch (Vegetarian / Gluten Free / Meatatarian)
Look forward to seeing you all there. Please RSVP.
My Thursday was pretty full already, but I managed to shift some things around and I rode my bike down to St. Patrick’s Island Park. Well, sorta… If only I’d remembered to put a mask in my pack before I started riding. Then I wouldn’t have stopped in Silver Springs, kicked myself and ridden back home again. Then I rode down to the park. And arrived an hour late. There still was a lunch available and I got a chance to say hello to everyone.
I stuck around afterwards and attended a meeting via my iPhone from the park, then rode home again. It was a long ride there and back, made longer by adding 10 km due to forgetting a mask. Glad I made it in the end, though.
