First Day in Appleton

The day begins early here with Bronwen up at 5:00 to get her 6:40 bus to school. Tycho, the new cat, seems to be up all the time as you an hear her collar jingle at any hour. Meg and I walked over to the indoor recreation facility on campus. She ran eight miles on the track while I used the treadmill and stationary bike and then did some core work. We came home, got cleaned up and then went over to her office. Harry dropped by and we had lunch with him. He looks every bit the typical college student and seems very engaged with her studies. I came back to the house to, well, take a nap.

Lynne returned early from Whitewater. It was great to see her
although she was slowed by some back pain. Her new job is going very well. Bronwen returned from school and got ready for her job interview at Subway in the Fox Valley Mall. Since Meg had a meeting, I got to driver her there. She thinks everything went very well and I am sure they did. She is as sweet as she looks.

After her interview, I went to campus to join Meg at the faculty happy hour in the Viking Room, an on-campus pub. It was very nice meeting and re-meeting many of Meg's faculty friends. Back at the house, we enjoyed pizza and some yummy apple turnovers--Lynne's idea and an excellent one. Tomorrow Meg leaves for Seattle and my custodial duties begin.
