I’m back, bitches!

It was a crammed full trip to NC - we met and hung out with what I’ll call our “brother” lab when we get there (we’ll be using part of their space until ours is finished), we saw what WILL be our space, and what changes will definately need to be made to it before we can use it (walls knocked down, windows added, disgusting grime cleaned up), and what it WILL look like when it’s done.  We saw the campus, the chapel, the gardens…the student union where we all bought t-shirts (dorks!).

We had two mini re-unions as we met up with two former lab members of ours who ended up in post-docs or grad school there.  toured around the area, saw areas where we can look to find apartments, found places that we should NOT look for apartments.

It was wonderful.  It was small, but it was big all at the same time.  It was unhurried.  It was not rush hour all damn day traffic.  Everyone was nice, and friendly, and there was no road rage.  It was open spaces.  And trees.  And hiking paths.  And little coffee shops, and everything is CLOSE and AFFORDABLE and just lovely.

Six and a half months and we’re THERE.
