Mandatory Conference

With Mario being a PhD student, we knew he'd have to go to at least a handful of travel research conferences, conventions and/or colloquia, but for some reason I assumed that they would all be ones he got to choose. In retrospect, that is a very unfounded assumption, but, regardless, it persisted, until he was told by his research lab he was going to a mandatory conference at a military base in Pennsylvania 1 week ago. 

He left yesterday at noon to attend a training conference through the Army, who is the primary funding agency on his lab's grant. Today's meetings lasted from 8-8, and tomorrow they're from 8-3, with a 5:00 flight home. Unfortunately, with the layover, they won't be back until 11p tomorrow.

So here's us girls "rulin' the roost." 😉
Ps: it's getting progressively MORE difficult to take selfies with them. For some reason, I thought it would get easier.
