I am really happy in this department and at VT in general. So many great colleagues and resources to help us succeed. Plus, look at these mountains! It's a beautiful place to live. Happy to chat if you want to know more.

The flooding happened SO fast. Yesterday afternoon at 4pm I went for a walk during a break in the rain. An hour later on my way home I had to wade through chest deep water to get back (not a good idea, I know, but I was not keen on spending the night in the forest)

So I'm back at my happy place at La Selva Biological Station in Costa Rica and it has been raining some. This morning I took a boat to breakfast @tropicalstudies
