I went back to SoDak again this weekend for Jeremy's graduation. The PhD candidates were the first to be recognized. All of his hoopla was over early and then we sat on the butt-numbing bleachers for another hour and a half while the other 1000 graduates walked across the stage. I was looking at the other PhD candidates on the list and saw one of Sioux Falls' local TV weather guys, Jay Trobec, was graduating too. Unfortunately, I don't think he was at the ceremony. Maybe he had to be on TV - there was some really bad weather on Saturday.
After graduation the Javers family and Sue and I went to Royal River Casino in Flandreau to celebrate. I lost $23 in the slot machines, but I bet Hard Spun would get second in the Kentucky Derby and won $14.50.
School is defnitely winding down for the semester. I finished my final Geographic Information Systems mapping project last week. Today I had my Advanced Cultural Anthropology final test. Now I just have a Biological Anthropology take home final to work on and I'm done. Yipee. Now I have to start thinking about / planning for Belize. I can't believe I leave in two weeks!
