I got up early this morning to pack up and get to the talks in time today since I missed yesterday. I also had to chair and give my talk! Was feeling sad as the day wrapped up because people were leaving and I wasnt sure anyone would come to my talk. However, all the UMass kids showed up and it was a good time. There were a lot of people who stuck around to the very end and I was impressed. I planned to have a later flight so I could go to Logan and finish up my work. It was a nice day and I could have spent more time downtown. I got there super early but as I was in security, got a note that flight was delayed an hour. Not happy, so I went in and found there was another flight leaving in 45 minutes or so. Marco was waiting at the gate and I just snuck onto the flight. Good call because the later flight was to be delayed over 2 hrs and get back after 10pm. That would have sucked. I got a window seat and looked out the window the entire time as we flew along the Erie Canal and thruway. When we did get home, I got pretty tired and felt the whole week come crashing ontop of me. Fun SoR wish I could have talked to more people and pushed a few things along, but I really did max it all out.
