More from Downtown Chattanooga
I took a bunch of pictures in Chattanooga, but since we’re going to be here in Flagstaff a second night (and the time change wakes us up early) I think I’m going to have the time to process all of them. There are some beautiful buildings and artwork in the city; somehow I made it through the…

From Arkansas to Texas
Yesterday we successfully made it from Arkansas, all the way through Oklahoma, and into Amarillo, Texas. We got some pictures of the trees disappearing, and at least one of me where I would appreciate it if you would ignore the multiple chins.

Exploring Downtown Chattanooga
After recovering from the delicious lunch, we spent Wednesday evening exploring downtown Chattanooga with Jason and Kaylin. I got a few decent pictures of them and us loving on each other and standing around the lovely buildings. There were a bunch of people playing and swimming in the fountains.

I met a ton of great people and had the opportunity to participate in a number of unique experiences. Some of the medical related highlights included the anatomy laboratory at UCSF, where…

National Youth Leadership Forum on Medicine
The title’s quite a mouthful, isn’t it? But that’s where I’m headed this weekend: San Francisco, California, where I’ll be staying for ten days. I’m excited/nervous about it; I’ve had the chance to meet a bunch of the attendees online beforehand, but the worst part about it is that I’m going to be away from Rachel. Even if…
