Welcome to the Bellingham Drupal Users' Group!
The BhamDUG is currently planning its meetups to talk about Drupal, to contribute to regional Drupal events like PNW Drupal Camp, and have some Drupal Fun. During BhamDUG meetups, we showcase modules and projects, share tips and tricks, and answer nagging questions about Drupal.
This is a geographic Drupal User Group, meant primarily for planning local Drupal related events and meetups, and for supporting users locally.
Don't know much about Drupal yet? That's okay. New Drupal people are welcome!

Paragraphs! Deep Dive
We are doing a deep dive into the Paragraphs module and the related modules that make paragraphs really sing.
Drupal 7 will be the base platform for the training but these concepts are transferable to Drupal 8 as well.
This is a special two hour training, starting at 4:30pm and going until 6:30pm. Drop by whenever you can as you will be sure to pick up something useful.

Drupal 8 & Twig C extension: tip on building the extension for Acquia Dev Desktop 2 context
A note about the Twig C extension (offers enhanced theme performance) for use with Drupal 8 in the context of Acquia Dev Desktop 2
I discovered that if you follow the instructions to build the Twig C extension (OS X context) per:
http://twig.sensiolabs.org/doc/installation.html#installing-the-c-extension
$ cd ext/twig # my full path location was at: ~/.composer/vendor/twig/twig/ext/twig
$ phpize
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install
You will get a 64-bit component as evidenced by using the file
command on the resultant twig.so
