Lab opening

Today, one of my colleagues had a formal, ribbon-cutting, lab opening on the main campus.  Speeches were made, champagne was distributed, and food was eaten.  It's a new civil engineering materials lab, that I think is more teaching than research.  I think the keystone issue was the space the lab is in, because most of the structural engineering faculty and labs are located where my office is in the old campus.  It was nice.

And I'm off dog-walking duty!  My friend was discharged from the hospital today and is in charge of her own animals now.
