Thank you Steve Jobs

So many people have already said so many things about Steve Jobs and the life that he had.  He was a visionary, a game changer, an inspiration, a man who liked to Think Different.

When I heard the news of his passing today, I stood in my apartment dumbfounded.  Without Steve Jobs's passion and ingenuity, the past 8+ years of my life would have played out very differently.

I made a trek this evening that used to be part of my daily routine.  While it has been a few months since I've been to Infinite Loop, going there was the only thing that felt right.  I wanted to see how everyone was feeling (as did the many reporters who asked employees questions as they walked past), but I also wanted to say thanks to Steve and to Apple.

Here are some shots that I was able to get in front of Infinite Loop.  A makeshift memorial was started under the 1 Infinite Loop sign, and later it was moved to a bench to allow more people to pay their respects.  Before I left a bagpiper started playing as he walked towards the memorial, and he ended in front of the bench.
