Going Home

Drew and I traveled back to Bucknell for our college homecoming this weekend. Here is what greeted us after 5 hours of driving.

Lovely fall day in a college town, right? Um, yeah maybe if you went to college in Siberia.

Constant rain put a bit of a damper on our visit. The main positive result from the horrible weather was that we didn't actually witness the demolition loss the football team experienced against Colgate.

Summation so far: after traveling 280 miles we were welcomed by driving rain for our 1 day on campus and I owe my boss, who graduated from Colgate, $5.

Ok, on to the good news. I had a wonderful visit with my friend Meghann! She and Scott (of TuNow fame) came to Lewisburg from Massachusetts to enjoy the lovely weather and our company. We had a good laugh remembering all of our adventures in Organic Chemistry and in the Humanities Res College.

Terrence -- if you're out there -- come back to us, we miss you.
Same to you, Dr. Gwaltney.

Oh, and if I haven't told you about TuNow, I need to -- ask immediately and prepare to laugh.

See Scott laugh -- he was remembering TuNow, I'm sure of it.

Because of the rain we weren't able to get many good photos around campus, but Drew did get a couple inside the fieldhouse.

Why does the bison on the Bucknell logo look so mad? If anyone has a right to look angry about hanging in the fieldhouse it's my friend below.

Being foolish optimistic Bucknellians, Drew and I hoped that we would be able to get an early start on Sunday, be greeted by the sun and get our photos then.

Here is what greeted us on Sunday morning:

That's right -- the thickest fog found outside of movie sets and Celine Dion concerts. Awesome.

We can take a hint and decided to high tail it out of town.

Fortunately, we had plans that would salvage our weekend. We met up with Jenn, Chris, and Owen for breakfast in Williamsport! It was great to see them, if only for a meal.

All in all, it was great to go home.
