Catchin' up

So I'm sitting in the back seat of the truck speeding up to Boulder to meet my new niece. I can't believe she's been alive since October 29th and I have never met her!
A lot's happened since then. Trying to keep my head above water at work. In fact, I've done a far bit of grading on the road today, but there's only so much you can do in a day, so I decided to catch up on telling of my trip that helped me get so behind in the first place: a business trip to San Fran. Here are a few pics from last week. It was a great trip and very motivating. We got to visit with folks at Stanford (most beauitful campus ever!) and observe a very proactive highschool in san Mateo. So here's some pics while we wait to get to Boulder and meet the baby...
The sideways pic of the tile walk show a tile for every year in the school. The first one read 87...as in 1887. They also had a Rodin sculpture garden and one of my favorite cathedrals in the world.
