I’m in San Jose, California, for some meetings with my incredible team. Few pictures, as much of our time was in conference rooms, but we did take a day for a fun excursion to the Roaring Camp Railroad in the redwoods near Santa Cruz.

Since I last visited Adobe’s offices in San Jose, we’ve opened a new office building called the Founders Tower.

Adobe, San Jose, California

The office is about two miles from the end of the main runway at SJC, which makes for fun close-ups from below:

This is a working 110-year-old steam engine. When you boil plain old water, you get a lot of mineral build-up, so periodically they use the high pressure of the water to blow the minerals out from the engine. Like this:
