Back to Wisconsin in 2 Days!

I am very excited to be back home for a long weekend, starting this Wednesday evening. I just have to get through one more day of field, a class presentation and a paper...not bad, right? I am very glad I've decided to take the Megabus home instead of driving because the weather this week in Michigan is rainy/snowy and I am not eager to travel over 6 hours in it.

Speaking of driving, I was really excited to fill my gas tank up today for just around $20! I heard on the radio this morning that prices have not been this low since 2005, which is great news for me since I am driving to and from Detroit twice a week. My commute seems to have gotten shorter because I'm accustomed to it now. The roads near my field site have also been improved since my first weeks there. I no longer have to swerve around the elevated sewer caps and we actually have a driveway to the parking lot now!

I hope everyone is having fun preparing for Thanksgiving Day. My family and friends are scattered throughout the country and the world this year but I hope you know you are all in my thoughts. 

Be well and eat delicious foods.
