159/366: Thanks, Manitoba

Door to my room at JLab's Residence Facility.

I’m in Newport News, VA, to give a talk tonight at Jefferson Lab, and they’re putting me up at the on-site Residence Facility. The rooms at this are apparently sponsored associated with institutions that use the facility, with big signs on all the doors. Here’s mine:

So, I guess my stay is in some sense subsidized by the University of Manitoba. It’s a perfectly adequate hotel room, so, thanks, Manitoba.

As I am a Sooper Geeenyus, I forgot to pack the dress pants I usually wear when giving talks. Sigh. Happily, this is a public lecture, so jeans-and-sport-coat is a perfectly acceptable outfit. But I still feel like a dope…
