Teenagers and Other Animals

Today was a partial work day for Don. I lounged poolside while he did conference calls. Have I mentioned that we are sharing our hotel with several high school baseball teams? Yes, our room is between two rooms of loud, energetic teenagers. Fortunately, they did sleep eventually and were gone during the day. We gave them a break and were not the "old people" to complain to the front desk because we have been on the other side of the fence when Alex was in baseball. Actually, if I remember right, it was the parents who got in trouble for being too noisy- not the boys! Karma.

Speaking of animals, Don and I toured a brand new veterinary hospital built for the new veterinary school at Midwestern University. It is huge but it seems even bigger because there are only freshmen students this year who are not ready to work in the hospital yet. Laurie Miller, Practice Manager for the hospital, is an acquaintance of Don's and gave us a wonderful tour. Wheatridge Animal Hospital has outgrown its building and will be building a new facility so seeing the features of this state-of-the-art hospital was very helpful. I want to come back in a year or two and see it when it is in full swing!

The Equine and Bovine Centers are still being built
Now that is a reception desk!
The blue mats on the treatment tables are yoga mats-what better to perform downward facing dog...and cat!
