I'm here! Arrived at 3:30 AM on 2/24/03. Getting out of Portland was a bear and two hours late so all my connecting flights were missed. I wound up in Los Angeles where I rented a car to get to Port Hueneme. My luggage followed a day later. I spent my first day in class fighting to stay awake. I had 4 hours sleep in the previous 30 hours. By the end of the day I was dead on my feet but didn't dare sleep because I wanted to adjust to the time difference.

It's cold here, 52 F this morning and it rained buckets last night. I had to go out in it to pick up my luggage. And I saw some snow! Way off in the mountains there is a lot of white stuff. I am NOT going to visit it.

The scenery is here, wish you were beautiful...

(Always want to write that on a postcard.)

Anyway, I'll be flying out of here on Saturday March 8. Back to the snow and cold. I think I may go to San Diego after all this weekend. Amos, you have room on your floor?

TTFN
