Conference in Maine

I spent the last week in a Gordon Conference on Natural Gas Hydrates in Maine. It took place on the Colby College campus, which is a small liberal arts college near Waterville. The campus was nice, and the food served at the dining hall was good. The dorms were so-so, but not bad.
I met a lot of people and learned a lot of new things related to my research. I also presented what I've been working on recently, and many people were excited about my results. All in all, I had a great time. Some of the activities that I got a chance to participate in while we weren't in lectures or listening to presentations were kayaking and taking a long walk into town to check out a farmer's market. I also relaxed next to a small pond/lake on campus and watched the clouds roll by. I saw a sun dog twice (a rainbow in the clouds)! Once from the campus, and once from the plane in the sky when I was heading home. On the last day of the conference, we all had a lobster dinner, where we were each served a 1.5 lb lobster. Mmmmmm. Here are some pictures:

You can't see it very well, but this is a picture of the sun dog I saw before I landed in Houston.
