Goodbye and Thank you to C2!

Yummy C2 Cake

For the past six months, we have been “squatting” on the property of C2, a brand strategy and graphic design firm in Half Moon Bay, California. The three partners may or may not have known what they were getting into when they offered us their paved “front yard,” but there we have sat for the duration of the Airstream’s build-out. We used their water, shower, kitchen, and wifi, and are forever indebted to them.

Yesterday, we said our final goodbyes and towed the Airstream off their property (after a brief cake and champagne thank you ceremony, of course). Thank you to C2 and we’ll send you postcards from the road!!

Timbuk2 sponsors our journey (and raffle)

Parked outside the kitchen (with Timbuk2 bag)

I swung by the San Francisco headquarters of Timbuk2 yesterday, and picked up two of their messenger bags for our VIP Preview raffle at Stable Cafe. For the past 6 or 7 years I’ve been toting one of their “Blogger” bags, which apparently is something of an antique by now. My friends at Timbuk2 were kind enough to upgrade my Blogger to one of their Spring 2010 styles, a sweet messenger bag with a lime green racing stripe and blue “secret cuteness” lining. My old Blogger bag has been regifted to my partner Matthew Miller. We’ll both be shlepping in style for the duration of our road show… thanks Timbuk2!
