ljgeoffI'll be leaving tomorrow to travel to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, and will be starting on Monday at the Dickinson County Healthcare System in Iron Mountain. Mike and the boys are coming up with me, to see me off and also for Mike to help Luke fix his brake line in his car.
I'll be at this site until the beginning of March.
Over the last three weeks, I've been working at my old worksite, the nursing home. I've really enjoyed seeing everyone there and they've been happy to see me too.
So, I own this house in Crystal Falls, which is about a forty minute drive from The hospital. The house currently has no heat or electricity, but I'm thinking I can fashion a small living space in the basement that will do. If not, I can easily stay with family in Gwinn, Negaunee, or Marquette -- it's just that those towns are about 90 minutes away. So, *shrug* -- we'll see. I'll be fine in any case.
As a fun thing to do, and an interesting experiment, Luke and I are going to build a mini rocket mass heater. I've been interested in these things for a long time, and now's my chance to try my hand at it.
Today is my last day at the nursing home, just a four hour fill-in shift. Tomorrow we head out!
