Drawing Down Supplies

kevin_standleeThis morning was a regular meeting of the SFSFC Board of Directors. Most of us in the meeting had multiple balls in the air, and we managed to get through the agenda fairly quickly. As I'll be gone for a while. I concentrated on getting the minutes draft out today, although it's unlikely the minutes will be online until late August as we need to give the members (most of whom are busy for the next few weeks) time to review them. It's not urgent, but if I didn't get it done today, it might not be something I'd finish until mid-September.
As we get closer to our departure for Denver, Iceland, and the UK this coming Thursday, we are trying to use up all of the perishable supplies, for we'll be gone long enough that much of them would likely go off before we get back. We're also reviewing what things to pack and possibly things that we can get while we're on the road should we use them up. A shopping trip today to Walgreens was thus on the agenda, plus a stop at Grocery Outlet (not for much, and most of it will be used up by the time we leave). Even this short time out in the heat (around 40°C) was difficult, and it was quite a while before I cooled down enough to get back to working on things that need to be done before we leave for Denver.
Yes, I know that NASFiC is happening this weekend. I would have liked to have been there, but I simply don't have enough PTO to make the trip, even flying, and still have enough to do the rest of the travel that Lisa and I are doing this summer. I hope those of you in Buffalo are having a good time.
