This Spring has been a blur of short trips all over the country to give various talks and such. This week and next week (with a trip back home on the weekend) I'm down in at the University of California, Santa Barbara, for a workshop and conference on "exoplanets," aka planets around other stars, aka what I spend my time studying. It has been quite fun--there is a big collection of exoplanet researchers here, so it is like being in an astronomy department where everyone studies something very related to what I do.
I'll be glad at the end of next Friday and when I can go home and just BE for a few weeks. I miss my family!
My friend Sarah Justin, who I've known for...almost 18 years...since we were sophomores in high school, lives just up the coast in Pismo Beach with her fiance Joel. Apparently it has been awhile since high school, but it doesn't seem like it. Sarah and Joel have a beautiful house with a fantastic view of the Pacific Ocean. Here we are before I headed back down to Santa Barbara:
