Bonus: since I didn&#8217;t think I was going to be there, I&#8217;m not committed to actually <em>do<\/em> anything.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThen, a week or two to unpack and get a little work done, some meetings on the 15th and 16th, and back to NC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m back on the road in two senses&hellip; First, we finally have a car: a 1994 Corolla that we found on Craigslist.
