Okay, John was sick on Saturday or Sunday, and now I'm feeling the last of my cold as I sit here and try to update this. I blame the changing weather! Hot... Then cold.. Then hot. Hey that would make anyone sick. I'll try not to make this blog too interesting with the large amount of cold medicine I've been taking lately.

We've had some very sunny weather lately! The temperatures have been dropping to some that are much more reminiscent of average fall temperatures recently, however the sun that has come along with them has made up for it. This is what it has looked like around North Campus all week:

Nice, dont you think? Makes those physics and calculus classes much easier to deal with!

Tropical Storm Noel Update:
For those of you interested in tropical storms, it seems as though parts of Southwestern Florida HAVE infact issued a storm watch, and are experiancing some heavy surf and high winds.

In this picture, workers are trying to pour concrete into a seawall to fix it after the waves from Noel mostly destroyed it.

However, the Caribbean is what is seeing the worst of the storm, currently. The storm triggered mudslides, and also has killed upwards of 81 people (as of 1 hour ago, ABC News report), and the storm may cause even more damage than that, as well.
