T minus... how many days?

The Wellness Center is now projected to open on March 31st.  Construction was slightly delayed again, but we have updated the announcement forms and plan to send them out this week.  We are supposed to move into our new building next Monday with computers and internet scheduled for Tuesday.  It is getting close and we are getting excited!  (By excited I mean: eager, nervous, a little anxious, and having to pee a lot.)

Of course, it is important to balance one's work with pleasure, which is why we have enjoyed ourselves on the weekends in the last month.

In February, we spent a crystal clear day at Crater Lake, stomping around in snowshoes.  (This wasn't really necessary as the snow is dismal this year at the lake, but I got these snowshoes for Christmas and dang it, I will wear them!)

Is it any wonder this is a national park?

Expert snowshoer.

And then we went to Portland for an MPH reunion.  The conversation was geeky.  The food was delicious.  The politics were liberal.  Of note, only one person in the group had an ebola scare this year (don't worry...  it was just malaria), so we're a successful group of public health professionals.  (Although half of the people who went for the weekend got sick, so I don't know what that says about us...)

The newest person we try to get to move to Klamath Falls.  (Note her t-shirt, which matches Randal's.)

 And back at home, the bathroom/bedroom remodel continues!  But, progress is made and it's looking great.  Skylight complete, floors refinished, painting and commenced.  And dum-da-dum!  The bathtub is hooked up!  Luxurious and wonderful...  I haven't used it nearly enough, but look forward to many evenings, days, mornings in this tub.

There is a seat, so you don't have to sit so low, but we might photograph that when I'm not actually taking a bath...

Since winter seemed to have skipped Klamath Falls (thanks for stealing it, Indiana...), we're moving along into spring and it's beautiful.  The hiking is gorgeous and the flowers are popping up.  It's a good time to live here.

Wish us luck on March 31st!
