NYU Update

I've finally been given my specific assignment in the Office of Residential Life and Housing Services at New York University. I will be working in the Hayden Residence Hall (building info from the NYU website can be found here) as the Residence Hall Director. I will have an assistant director, resource manager, and two faculty-in-residence. The building is situated on Washington Square Park with great views of the Empire State Building.


It's so nice that the former president of NYU lives in the penthouse of the building, which takes up the entire 18th floor. I will be moving up there at the end of this month with tremendous help from my mom and dad. My first day will be August 1.

Fresh from the Garden

These are just a few of the vegetables from our garden that we have enjoyed.  The green beans seem to be coming along just fine, just got our first cucumber, the carrots don't seem to be doing to well, and we just planted pumpkin for the fall.  For those of you who did not know, we replaced the pool with a garden and it has been fun to watch everything grow.
