Rain Rain Rain


I am now in San Diego and got in late last night. I had a six hour flight on the way over and it was pretty crammed, so I was ready to get off the plane and start my visit! When I got out of the airport I looked up and there was lightning everywhere. It was pretty crazy. It has been raining ALL day long and it has even hailed a couple of times. It was hailing so hard at one point that someone outside screamed, "It's snowing!". Oh, California! The campus isn't prepared for this kind of whether and I was talking to someone today who said that their house is flooding because of it. She said that water was just coming through the walls because it was never made for this kind of weather, crazy!

My stay has been pretty great here so far, besides the rain. I am starting to get tired and feeling jet lagged. I have been in meetings since 9 a.m. and I have two more to go until I am done with my day. It feels good to be back on the road and feeling useful, even though I do miss New Hampshire!

More updates soon...

A new adventure

Well tomorrow I head out to San Diego for my first visit of the semester. I am very excited to start up again but it is all bittersweet that my full days of relaxation are over. However, I am only leaving for ten days and then I will be back again. Over the next week and a half I will go to: San Diego State University, Cornell University and then to Dallas, TX for a conference. After all of this I come home again! I am excited to begin again and have a smaller amount of visits than last semester.

I am all packed up and ready to go to sunny San Diego! It is nothing but snow here in NH! I will be sure to update my blog more this semester since I did not do a good job of it last semester.

That's all for now, more to come this week!
