There is a great community college where Lorena will have a good chance to finish her degree within six minutes of our apartment. There was never any doubt about that. The system of community colleges in the United States is, along with the homeschool movement, the greatest educational hope for our country. Pretty much everything else about our educational systems are either bad or getting that way rapidly.

Lorena will almost certainly wait until the Fall to get started, but that means I will have to find a project to keep me busy and out of trouble while she studies. I think she could probably finish up within three or four semesters at one or two classes per semester. I think that will give me the time I need to finish up with the current phase of our GaugeCam project. She is checking the whole thing out and plans to start getting all her transcripts sent to the right place today. So far, she has been to five different community colleges–three in Oregon and two in North Carolina. This will be her first in Texas.
