It’s starting to feel a lot like spring these days. Cold nights and warm sunny days. It’s still cold enough to freeze the tea I left in the car .. but warm enough for shirt sleeves by afternoon.  It was about 14 degrees when I ran this morning. and about 45 by the time I took Gabe to lacrosse. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

We can see more bare ground every day.. though the yard is still mostly covered with snow…   It’s staying lighter, later too which feels good<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

I had a jam packed day.. my 2nd meeting of the day was pretty interesting. My friend Kim has offered to help me make my office usable again. I’ve been using it as more of a storage room for the last couple of months… I ended up emptying the contents of an other storage space I had into there. The result is a place that isn’t really conducive to working. Kim’s offered to help me find  some furniture and find a way to store\/get rid of 25 years of gunk that I have in there now. We spent about 30 minutes looking around in some of the old labs.. and I found some cool looking lab fixtures I may be able to press into service as a desk and chair. Should be cool if I can figure out a way to move it to my office. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

I did have one offsite meeting today with friends from UVM and Champlain. The two places are discussing ways that they be able to collaborate around using modern multi media, gaming  and social networking to help promote science technology engineering and math careers. I love the fact that they’re looking for ways to work together. I’ve hung around enough in both places to know how well their skills and needs compliment one another. It was really fun to be in a room with these two sets of friends coming together for the first time. I’m cautiously very optimistic that this will be the start of of something good !. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

I got home to find the living room full of Lacrosse stuff. mason was stringing up one of Sam’s old lacrosse sticks for Gabe.. Gabe was running around bouncing off of things with his new helmet. Tonight as supposed to be Gabe’s team’s first practice. It was to be indoors until it gets a bit warmer. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Diane made Gabe’s favorite dinner.. cheeseburger burrito with fries inside to give home energy for lacrosse<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

I drove Gabe up to Brown’s river only to find that the 5-6’s were practicing earlier this evening.. It wasn’t a waste though.. we were able to get Gabe signed up and get him a jersey.. I’m excited about the season starting up.. I love watching Gabe play.. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Lacrosse season brings up some strong memories of Sam, too. He just loved the game…  I look at this picture of him in his lacrosse gear every day… <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Gabe and I took a quick detour on the way home and dropped in on a conference I’d helped organize that was being held at the Inn at Essex.Gabe and I just walked around and said hi to some friends then left. One cool thing about the conference is that they had these great bunny ice sculptures ’guarding’ the doors. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We left a SamStone on one for folks to find…   OK.. It’s getting late.. gotta sleep More tomorrow   .. Rah-rah everyone.. rah-rah Sam (that’s what they always say at the end the lacrosse games)

ps. I just got word from USAIR that they allowed me to reinstate those 67K miles that had expired and donate them to their Miles of Hope<\/a> program.  The program uses donated frequent flyier miles ot help with ’angel flight’ programs forfamilies of sick kids, make a wish foundationand the red cross. It’s easy to donate the miles.. just do it before they expire.. .. not like me \ud83d\ude42   Thank you USAIR !<\/div>\n
