Kyle has returned from his three-month stint in Thailand a little ahead of schedule due to the timing of an audit in California which requires his supervision. It is unclear where his next posting will take him.  We are rooting for Boston but it is more likely that he will wind up in Menlo Park where his small company already has an office.  Until this decision is finalized he has furnished his office with an inflatable mattress so that he does not need to find temporary housing until the decision is made.  In addition, he now has one of the shortest commutes in all of California.
