What a Difference a Week Makes

So last week I was preparing to spend the summer alone. Rusty was preparing to accept a job in Alaska this summer for 14 weeks. He completed a wilderness first aid course and gun safety. Although it was the best move for our future, I was totally bumming about spending the summer alone! The summer in Portland is the best part of living here. So he decides to talk to his employers this week and let them know he intends to leave mid-June. To our surprise they decide to promote him from GIS Specialist 1 to a GIS Specialist 5! So no more Alaska (whew what a relief). Later that day, Rusty was elected as one of two coordinators to the Geology Club at PSU. It is even a paid position. So now he has to plan some fun geological activities for the club.


Rusty left this morning for a class field trip and this is what he looked like. If this is not Rusty in his prime I do not know what is!
