Seems I jumped the gun last Sunday morning. Woke up in Pendleton, Oregon and it was raining. Well, by the time we got on the road the rain had stopped and we had sunshine nearly to Portland where we got a little drizzle. Arrived at our apartment in time to watch parts of the superbowl as we unpacked. Beautiful sunny weather in the 40's and 50's all week.
It was nice to be "back" at work with so many familiar people. The emerging flowers greeted me just outside the vet school and there were yellow crocuses blooming nearby. From our last visit here, I found that the o great horse Gatsby is still functioning although I don't have any details. Got to meet a new class of Oregon State vet students for my 9am lecture on Monday, then Tuesday, then Wednesday and lab on Wednesday and Thursday. Got to get re-acquainted with senior students in the clinic along with other staff and faculty members. Aside from limping around and finally using the elevator to get up to class, it seemed like we had never left.
Although we had planned to go to the coast, Georgia was punky all week and did get out Friday, however we decided to give our bodies a rest and stay in and watch it rain. Even that is relaxing, although I did listen to the Illinois basketball teams get defeated by Purdue via online radio. Guess I couldn't get too upset since I do have Boilermaker roots. Sorry there aren't more pictures. Til later.
