the “barn” of the Veterinary Science Research Station.

I visited the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine’s Clinical Skills Building out at the Spy Hill campus for the first time this morning. I was surprised at the scale of the facility. Lots of really impressive stuff out there.

Heading into the Foothills hospital this morning, the STARS air ambulance was just lifting off from the helipad beside the bus stop. Someone’s day started really, really badly.

we went out to chili’s for dinner. you’re supposed to complain about chili’s, but it was good, dammit.

I got to watch a great sunrise this morning; something I’d have likely missed completely if stuck in a bus or car.

I had a meeting with a prof and grad student, and took the stairs up the education tower to avoid the horde in the elevators. These old stairways feel like climbing backward in time…

clouds become momentarily lit from below, as the rising sun peeks through a gap.

We went down to the zoo for the afternoon. Evan is turning into such an amazing young man. We had a blast hanging out together.

The southwestern sky was lit up in reds and oranges. I really need to start packing my real camera on the bike again…
