Today we dropped Gabe off for college.. but only for practice this time. Today and tomorrow are Gabe’s college orientation weekend. We spent the day there (8am–8pm) checking out the campus, listing to talks, and meeting other parents. it was really fun.. it was particularly fun seeing the place I’ve known for 37 years through the eyes of a student.. and through the eyes of all the folks from out of state. and I have to admit.it’s a very special place.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

things were very well organized. gabe checked in, and got his key for the night..<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

they fed us in a giant tent… luckily, the tent wasnt necessary.. the weather was gorgeous most of the day.. we told all the out of staters that ‘it’s always like this here’ \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

we attended several lectures..on campus life, academics, foreign study etc.. it reminded me how hard it was for me to sit still and pay attention in school .. my patience for listening to someone talk is about 15 minutes..<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n
