From the beach we traveled back to Durham and helped them clean and pack in a whirlwind preparation for their move to Toronto where Paul will begin his post-doc research. We returned to Spokane on Saturday, May 17, and Paul and Ansley started driving to Toronto the next day with their 2 cats and as much as they could fit in the car.
Since then they have been settling and adjusting. We Skyped with them last week and got a mini-tour of their apartment. One of the things they love is that they can walk just about everywhere--to the store, restaurant, church, parks, and Paul walks just 3 blocks to catch a shuttle to his new research facility. Ansley continues to work for her company and transition to a remote assignment. Aren't computers wonderful? (Okay, maybe most of the time? How about some of the time? ...)
Back in Spokane, I (Chris) have been working as part of a team on the new Wycliffe website which just went live this last week. We're integrating content for Recruitment and Mobilization and planning how to go forward with more content and changes. We've also been very busy with the Perspectives course. We just helped teach a coordinator's workshop, and we are tentatively planning for 2 classes here in Spokane in 2015. I don't have much of a problem staying busy, though figuring out which thing to do next is always an issue.
