Work and... more work

Daniel and I are on our first "work" trip ever (the AZ Academic Decathlon competition didn't really count - we were there for all of 24 hours) - we're in Oro Valley (near Tucson) in Arizona hosting (he's hosting, I'm helping) the National Finals for the World Scholar's Cup.

It's stressful, but very amazing to see these schools coming from all over the country to compete in the competition, and the teams who score highest will be going to Korea next month for the World Finals.

We got discounted food (I was disappointed to not get food outright donated, but we got pretty good rates for the food we did get), and about 60 students.

We're doing some last minute planning tweaking right now. Be back later with more.

Tucson is very very pretty, but the roads and highway system is the most ineffective I've ever experienced (believe it or not, LA actually makes sense compared to Tucson).
