This last week I was out of town for a retreat with TGen & VARI (our partner in research). The VAR Institute has quite an impressive operation and Grand Rapids was actually a pretty awesome town! The retreat took us to the North woods of Michigan to Chrystal Mountain Resort. It was a lot of fun, and a lot of cool science is being done! Pretty much it was talk science for 12-14 hours, then socialize for 2 hours (sampling some of the local brews...:P), before crashing into bed. It was nice though, I managed to get in a couple run in Grand Rapids (near SteamPig!), and even ran up the ski hill at the resort. All in all a good week for networking, learning, and showing off my "on-the-fly image analysis" to a couple investigators...:)
Mara and Rohan got some good one-on-one time before she starts residency next week. Nothing too hard then, just orientation. They hit up a bunch of parks, the Children's Museum, and of course a couple splash pads! Rohan has been awesome with potty training too. He went for almost a week without an accident (day or night!). One of Mara's goals was to get him trained for when she starts residency, and she has done and awesome job with it! He pretty much has to go at all the most inopportune times. Last night he peed next to the car in the Wal-Mart parking lot...:)
Not too much planned this week, just enjoying one more week before Mara starts again, enjoying the heat (hit 105°F yesterday), but it's not too bad. Still haven't turned on the A/C, and hope to hold off on that for a while. Eventually we'll probably just turn it on at night.
Hope everyone had a good week/weekend and got outside to enjoy the weather (or escaped somewhere that had nice temps!).
