There are a few things that seem to surprise me every time. One of them is the ocean being salty. I don't know how many times I swam in the ocean, but I'm surprised every time. When I go to Fresno (as I did yesterday) I was surprised by how exhausted the heat makes me. It seriously knocked me on my ass.

I know the ocean is salty and I know Fresno is hot, but I'm still continually surprised by just how much.

I got to see some of my favorite people on my visit to Fresno. It'll be good to work there again, the professors and staff in the physics department are incredible people and great to work with.
