Day 775 of 1000

Kelly works the two big monitors on her stats project at Hunt Library NCSUThis a picture Kelly snapped while at work at the fabulous new NCSU Hunt Library today. As I am stuck out in Prescott without the family working through the weekend, I got a little melancholy.  Lorena, the kids and I started going down to the NCSU Hill Library (the old one) when the kids started community college three and a half years.  At first it was fun because we got to watch the posturing and histrionics of the college kids while Lorena, Kelly, and Christian studied and I worked on volunteer research for NCSU. 

When the kids moved on from community college to NCSU, we continued to go about every other Saturday, but now it was even more fun because the kids were part of the drama.  Then, at the beginning of 2013 the best college library in the world opened over on the Centenniel campus.  Now, we only have a few short months to go to the library together.  I want to enjoy every chance I get to be with the kids before they go off to graduate school in the west.  Fortunately, the plan is for me to be home for a couple of weeks after this trip and I plan to make the most of it.  I am very thankful that they still do not mind if I tag along.
