UCSD White Coat Ceremony

Hi all! Here I am at UCSD at the annual white coat ceremony for the
incoming Pharmacy School class. Joe is speaking to the class - how
neat! He gave a very awesome talk. Afterwards, we were treated to a
wonderful supper with Dean Taylor and a few other UCSD Pharmacy school
people. As a matter of fact, Dean Taylor is right in front of me in
this picture! It was great and quite an honor for Joe...

Made it to the beach!

Here I am at my old beach, Torrey Pines State Beach! We flew here
today for a long weekend trip. Joe will be speaking at UCSD on Friday,
so that will be really cool!!! Had a pretty good problem-free trip and
looking forward to some great observing over the next few days. I love
traveling!

Beautiful day!

Here we are on the property, downloading the cameras so we are sure
they are working and we capture the leaves changing. The beautiful
colors are starting, but not too much on top of the hill yet. I hope
we don't miss it when we go to California! I love beautiful days out
here! So does Orion!

Halloween preparation

Hey everyone! Joe went to the storage unit and got our Halloween
decorations out! Astro tried on her chicken hat to get in the spirit,
unfortunately, she is never in the mood for anything but running! I
love Halloween!

Home again!

The trek from our parking spot to our apartment is pretty long! It is
nice we have covered parking, but in order to avoid time consuming
trips, we got the cart. Can you even find me on the cart?

Campfire

After a nice sunny day, there was a freak rainstorm! Then it cleared
up so we could have our campfire! So nice out! You can see what
remains of the storm clouds off in the distance. I like the weather
here!

On the property

We went to Wisconsin this weekend to meet Joe's Dad and Joe's Uncle at
our property. BP really had fun running around! Here he is taking a
break in the sun.

Luminarium

Last stop at the fair is the Luminarium - it was the best part of the
fair! Nice air conditioning and soothing music to go along with the
neat colors. Gus really liked it and so did I!

My ride...

As we walked around the fair, Gus rode up front and I rode in
back...it was a little cramped, but cool with the mesh netting and I
could see everything! It was also very secure...I like riding around
the fair and observing all the cool things to see!

Crazy Watermelon!

We took at stop around noontime to give Gus a bottle and relax. We
stopped next to a booth where a guy was carving crazy watermelon
creatures! Pretty cool on a hot day!

Space Tower

Here we are riding the Space Tower! You can see the City of
Minneapolis if you zoom into the background. You can also see the
fairgrounds right below us. It was a pretty neat, yet short, ride!

At the state fair!

Hi all! Yesterday, Joe, Anne, Gus, and I went to the Minnesota State
Fair! It was so fun! Here we are in the small animal barn with all the
bunnies...I found one that looks a lot like me! I know he is in a cage
here, but I'm sure his owner loves him and plays with him a lot when
he is at home! I love bunnies!

Orion shave down...

Yesterday, we tried out the new doggie clippers to shave down Orion.
He was a very good dog while Anne did it. Believe it or not, this is
what was left over when we were done! He looks very handsome and sleek
now!

Holy toys!

Hey everyone! Today, Joe, Anne, Gus, and I went to toys-R-us to check
out some more advanced toys for G-man. As you can see, he found a lot
of stuff he liked! It will be fun to watch him play and learn! Another
neat thing is Gus' hair - it was windy enough outside that his hair is
actually blowing in the breeze! Zoom in and check it out...I love
shopping for toys!
