Off to Maine

Anna and I are headed up to Maine for the weekend tonight for some hiking amongst the foliage... and a brief respite from what has been a rather stressful fall (it's NIH grant season, and our lab has several going out).

I won't watch or listen to the VP debate, nor will I be posting until Sunday or Monday, but, alas, I probably won't be able to ignore the news. Hopefully Biden doesn't self-destruct and the bailout rescue passes the House.

I hope to be back with some GPSed hikes and some keen and penetrating insights... though I think only the former is a safe bet.
