Off to Maine ...

What a weekend!!! As fast as I got home, I am back on the road. My travels this week will take me to Maine, Massachusetts and New Hampshire. A huge highlight of my trip this week will be having dinner with my friend Mary from Vermont. It is always nice to have somebody to talk to while you eat. Eating alone gets old but you start to think the USA Today newspaper or the latest book I am reading is my best friend!! Speaking of USA Today, I love the word puzzles!!! My friend Darcy showed me them one time and I was hooked. Quick Cross and Up and Down words are my favorite. Sometimes I will try my hand at the crossword, only to realize I should have never started. Once in awhile I will get 1 or 2 clues correct. Like I said, once in awhile.

Last night we had our monthly chat. There were 48 of you on there. It was mad crazy and my fingers were sore from all the typing. It was great to see so many excellent questions. Please don’t ever be afraid to ask us questions. That is why we are here. I am not just another pretty face from UNH!!! (smirk)

There is a big event this weekend. Yes, it is Open House on Sunday, but even bigger than that is my 5 year wedding anniversary. More on that toward the end of the week. Open House is a great time to see the campus and meet with students and faculty. If you haven’t already done so, sign up for one of the 3 dates. We would love to have you on campus!!

Well, time to head north on I-95 here in Maine. I am Bangor bound and of course making a few stops along the way. I love Maine with the deals I can get at a few stores. For my Maine friends, “I should have bought it when I saw it at ____________!!! My favorite store of all time!!!! My wife has asked me to pick up clothes pins. I hope the plastic ones are in stock!!!!

Enjoy the week everyone!!! Until next time ...
