Yes, today is a somewhat nostalgic day for me, as typically I would be on a plane at this time (and already have landed) in Milwaukee ready to make my trip up to Ripon for Badger Boys State and my conducting responsibilities. Sadly, summer class has interrupted my usual plan and so I was unable to make it back. Thankfully an individual was found to fill in for me on an interim basis, but it still will be odd not being there.
Best of luck to the staff, boys, and Ripon College. Energy Crunch for all!

spot on campus
If you're traveling campus, one place that seems to be visited the most is Scripps Cottage - definitely a place to relax and take a minute for a break.

a trip...down memory lane
Yes, I'm back on a journey. But not one that makes me all that excited...at least not yet.
I started up my first summer course last week at SDSU - in quantitative analysis. Otherwise known as statistics. Now, normally that probably wouldn't be so bad, but those of you who know how well math and I get along together know that this could be a very interesting experience. I will admit that so far, though, things are going pretty well - I'm still on the positive side of understanding this stuff. I just remember sitting in Chip's Statistics class and wondering (besides who picks out his suits and ties) how I'm ever going to use the stuff...
...well, I guess working on my PhD has helped me figure it out. Here's hoping I make it through in one piece.

trip to Calexico
Last Friday Rudy and I hit the road to Calexico to do some audio installation work and testing at our IVC Campus. Not a bad drive, and a relatively quick job to do.
On the way back, I couldn't help but note the temperature:
Was a balmy, spring-like 91 degrees when we arrived.
