Hey Luke, that's awesome :-) how were the social aspects? How did you guys make friends along the way? Via sports/activities?

Growing up we went to the local public school and took art and physical education.

In high school, I played varsity soccer, and ran track at nearby public school, so I knew most of the kids there.

I also worked often, and met quite a few people that way.

If I could change anything about my social activities, it would be to live closer to where things actually happened. Growing up in the middle of nowhere in Maine gets boring :)

After many attempts at getting started with Xcode and Objective-C had fizzled...it was an absolute joy trying RubyMotion and getting setup as an iOS Developer last night.

I can't wait to learn more, and it's wonderful being able to develop in Sublime, use RubyGems, Git, etc.
