Well, the summer wasn't really all that long but it just seemed that way. Managed to fit in quite a bit between flying, sailing, temple and that work thing. Becky came out to visit in the beginning of August and was treated with a nice Duluth summer (temps in the mid-60s). But we managed to have some fun hitting all the hot spots; the zoo, the aquarium, canal park, split rock light house and a flight with Robin (my flight instructor).
But the fun of summer wasn't to last...
At the end of August there was another round of layoffs at Cirrus, and this one I didn't survive. Since then I have moved all of my stuff into storage (in Duluth) and completely moved out of my apartment there, mostly to save the rent money. Dad and I drove back last weekend, so I am back at home for a little while, until I figure out what's next. It was very hard to say goodbye to my friends and life in Duluth, met some incredible people in that community that I hope to stay in touch with over time!
Been sending out the resume and applying for jobs in my field, and also thinking about other options for the future, including law school or maybe politics or maybe something else entirely. We'll see where the wind takes me...
