Ahh, the joys of Agile Opens. Meeting and mingling with fellow practitioners while learning new ideas and sharing experiences. For this episode, Vic (@AgileCoffee) traveled to Seattle for the Agile Open Northwest before bopping down to San Diego to visit Agile Open San Diego. Both multi-day events were held in February.

In Seattle, Vic was joined by David Snook, Joel Bancroft-Connors (@JBC_GC), Dain Charbonneau (@Dainpc) and Harold Shinsato (@hajush). In San Diego, Vic sat with Rich Clingman, Jason Kerney (@JasonKerney) and Sarah Wiezel.
