Today was a whirlwind.. We had our second session at Canyon Crest.     It’s a huge and beutifu; school.. the folks in the office were super freindly as we badged in. As we waited we noticed the lost and found…. Look at all these  water bottles searching for their owners !

 

Angelina and I helped the students complete their schematics and lay out their Printed cxircuit boards.  Diane helped alert us to anyone who seemed to be struggling.   Our goal was to have most of them finishing their designs before we left.. then they’d apply for the $100  OnBoard.  grants and order their boaerds. One student, Charles.. actually got completely through the process which impressed me. By the time we all had to run for our planes, the class was in a good place, We had several fiirst-time issues, but all in all.. it felt like a great success. 

Our frind Alvin from IEEE  SOlid State Circuits arranged a very quick  ceremony before we left and gave us all plaques for running the workshop.. DIane 

We got to the airport in plenty of time to catch an earlier flight to Portland. vis SFO …   unfortuunately, that plane was delayed for a couple of hours due to a maintaince issue. We got to SFO just 12 minutes before close of boarding on our outbound plane. Diane and I ran.. .. no sprinted … tot he other gate at full speed.. Thanks goodness we’re both runners. We made the plane by just 4 minutes !  ./ I hate running for planes.. !!!!!

We had a peacful flight to Portland.. Gabe piced us up and we went out for a great Greek meal.. SO good sweeing Gabe and Nova..!   We’re staying at a place just around the corner that we really like.. and we really like the  women who own it.. 

Very Glad to be here !

Nite all,nite sam
