Today was a big day.. I had to forgo morning coffee because today was my latest cardio workup. I do this every 5 years due to soem shakey family history. I had an Echocariagram and a cardiac PET scan .. both came out excellent which is just what I want to hear.   I am thinking that soem of the  credit here  goes to Diane for maintianing us so well. Lots of exercise, great food and a wonderful supportive relationship 🙂 

One hte way out of the cardio lab, I took soem time to look at the organ donor memorial.. 

always thinking of Sam

later after work I had a great meetign with a group of UVM STEM abassadors.. We gave them a tour.. and then heard about their STEM teaching senester  projects. Many of them around syuistainability.. btu soem about aviation.. even one about cryptography .  

It was super inspiring !

Diane and I were up at Jay Peak today for a AI panel I was running for the mVT Association of Hospital and Health Services.The panelist were great !  I thought the panel went pretty well.. .a little long though.  I really enjoyed meetign all of these healthcare folks > I was very impressed with the level of sophistication of their current AI deployments and even more so for their visions for the future. 

After the panel, we said goodbye to everone from VAHHS.. then drove aroudn the mountain to do a beautiful climb up Jay Peak. THe weather was beautiful and the fall colors were already starting. In addition to great views of Vermont, We could see canada, New Hampshire  and New York.. .. It was a great hike !
