Hello Fellow Technophiles,
If you have never been to Vermont during foliage season, you are missing out on something very special. This year has been particularly beautiful and in many parts of Vermont, we are still at peak foliage, so there is still time to get in the car and get here. If you do come up and plan on going off of the beaten path, which I highly recommend, then you should know that cell phone coverage can be spotty. When I head out into the wild, I always pre-download Google Maps maps to my phone so I can use them in offline mode. Click here to see more details about this great feature.
October also means post-season baseball and since my Boston Red Sox are out, I can join Small Dog CEO Don Mayer and root wholeheartedly for the Cubs. I have always been sympathetic to the Cubs due to their many similarities to the BoSox such as a very old stadium, a famous curse, and a long drought without a World Series championship. Living on the north side of Chicago within biking distance of Wrigley for five years cemented my loyalty and means that I have been to way more games there than I have to Fenway.

And finally, in other October news, our next issue of Tech Tails will come out one day after Halloween, so I wanted to get opinions on a potential costume. See the picture at the left and let me know how I look!
Thanks for reading!
