Diane and I just got here after a pretty easy 6 hour drive in from <st1:state><st1:place>Vermont<\/st1:place><\/st1:state>. I&#8217;m down here to do a science show at the New Jersey Institute of Technology tomorrow morning before flying to <st1:city><st1:place>Austin<\/st1:place><\/st1:city> for work .<span style=\"\">&nbsp; <\/span>I&#8217;ve been doing shows\/talks<span style=\"\">&nbsp; <\/span>at NJIT for several years now.. My good friend Kevin went to school here.. and he turned me on to the place.<span style=\"\">&nbsp; <\/span>NJIT offers a<span style=\"\">&nbsp; <\/span>great science summer camp. In past years it&#8217;s been<span style=\"\">&nbsp; <\/span>a great and really diverse group of kids. I&#8217;m looking forward to the show. I&#8217;ll dedicate it to Sam\u2026<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <\/span>I do this drive down to NY all the time by myself..<span style=\"\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <\/span>It&#8217;s so much fun having Diane here with me this time.. She&#8217;s a great travel companion.. interesting, fun and compact !..<span style=\"\">&nbsp; <\/span>Compact is a big deal because I have every piece of my science equipment crammed into our Prius. There&#8217;s not room for another toothpick in the car.. but it&#8217;s so much better on gas !<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i147.photobucket.com\/albums\/r319\/johncohn\/jun07b\/jun2507041.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <\/span>Diane&#8217;s able to travel with me this week because Gabe left at <st1:time minute=\"0\" hour=\"6\">6AM<\/st1:time> this morning for High Cascade in <st1:state><st1:place>Oregon<\/st1:place><\/st1:state>. He was so excited to be going.. he&#8217;s been planning it for over a year. It will be extra meaningful for him this year. Sam went there last year and loved it.<span style=\"\">&nbsp; <\/span>The boys were looking forward to going there together this year. Gabe is taking all sorts of Sam stuff out with him. He&#8217;s also taking a box <span style=\"\">&nbsp;<\/span>to Tyler E., the kid who was paralyzed after a bad snowboarding accident. The box contains<span style=\"\">&nbsp; <\/span>a bunch of<span style=\"\">&nbsp; <\/span>SamStones, a Sam shirt and a letter from the Friends of<span style=\"\">&nbsp; <\/span>Sam with the donation they&#8217;re making to Tyler and his family. The High Cascade folks are taking the box down to <st1:city><st1:place>Tyler<\/st1:place><\/st1:city> next month,<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"\">&nbsp;&nbsp; <\/span>I have to admit that it was hard for me putting Gabe on the plane with Sumner.. but Diane and I are determined for the kids to live fully and bravely. I know that Gabe will be in good hand and will be well supervised. He got to <st1:state><st1:place>Oregon<\/st1:place><\/st1:state> without a hitch\u2026 so far he loves the camp.. I&#8217;ll post any stories he sends me.<span style=\"\">&nbsp; <\/span><span style=\"\">&nbsp;<\/span>He just called as I was writing. I love hearing from him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<p><center><br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i147.photobucket.com\/albums\/r319\/johncohn\/jun07b\/jun2507016.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i147.photobucket.com\/albums\/r319\/johncohn\/jun07b\/jun2507014.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i147.photobucket.com\/albums\/r319\/johncohn\/jun07b\/jun2507013.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i147.photobucket.com\/albums\/r319\/johncohn\/jun07b\/jun2507011.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><\/center><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i147.photobucket.com\/albums\/r319\/johncohn\/jun07b\/jun2507035.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"> <\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <\/span>Meanwhile, Chai is home taking care of Max ! <span style=\"\">&nbsp;<\/span>Max is dong a 4 going vegan for the next few weeks..
