Post-Conference Road Trip

Following the ACSD Conference, it was time for some rest and renewal -- thus a road trip!

Within a week of ACSD, Anna and I jumped in the car and headed to Washington State.  It was a delightful trip.  Six days of travel and fun included ...  lunch at Great Pacific Wine and Coffee in Pendleton, OR (thanks to the Schandorff's recommendation), a fun stop in Hood River, OR, quality time with the Griffith family, a evening encounter with Colum McCann ('nough said!), great local food, a beautiful day in Seattle and some fresh mountain air at the family cabin in Packwood, WA. As you can tell by the recap, it was a full trip... but EXACTLY what I needed after a full academic year followed by hosting a national conference.  It might just have to be repeated next summer!
