Snail's Pace

Work continues on our building. The crew set up a scaffold in the main courtyard today:



Not sure how long it will take them to get the job done. They don't seem to be in any real hurry. Possible that Rachel will see them in December haha.

Pretty typical day. Nice weather, cool, sunny. Working on a paper submission. Also wrote a couple of letters of recommendation for Whitman students. Also working on getting a data science minor set up. Even in Spain the ties back to Whitman are strong. Speaking of which, I noticed that the women's basketball team is back in practice. And, the women's tennis team has a match this weekend. Those are my two favorite Whitman teams and I miss them.

I walked Laura over to her "intercambio" this evening. On the way back, I got some video of this snail sprinting across the 1st floor hallway in our building:


Look at her go!
