   My last run of the week was yesterday, and I made it a run from our hotel on the square in Oak Creek to the shore of Lake Michigan by way of the Oak Leaf Trail. Success! Long runs are getting easier. @ Beach at... https://www.instagram.com/p/B1TmRyunASJ/?igshid=10zp2rxdtnji0

   Did not get as much recording of lecture videos done today as I would have liked (only 3), but it was a good start and in a beautiful location - on Lake Michigan at Carthage College. Thanks to my host, Prof. Brian... https://www.instagram.com/p/B1NNl6GH2ob/?igshid=1fetp39xiqeu6

   Good run today. Again, misjudged the length of these trails (I meant to come in between 3-4 miles) but no complaints about the extra distance! @ Oak Creek, Wisconsin https://www.instagram.com/p/B1MErz-HzIf/?igshid=14ra0g2z3ropq

   Finished my lectures on all but General Relativity... that marks roughly the first month of my course this fall. Today is recording day! Time to turn these lectures into audio and video recordings and prep them for final editing.

   Today is my day off from running, but not my day off from class preparation! Todays goal is to finish lectures on energy and momentum in special relativity and a basic outline of general relativity.

   Had a lovely run out and back along part of the Oak Leaf Trail in Oak Creek, Wisconsin. Looking forward to a day of relativity lecture writing. @ Oak Creek, Wisconsin https://www.instagram.com/p/B1ENPoTHgT5/?igshid=8nm765vfazrn

    Over the past few days, I have managed to build momentum on lecture prep for my Modern Physics class this fall. Three lectures are done, including the basics of relativity, the postulates of special relativity, and the Lorentz Tranformation. Having fun with TikZ and Beamer.

    After a lot of driving yesterday, we made it to our northern Wisconsin destination and I treated myself to another run. Today is my day off. https://www.instagram.com/p/B0-4u6CHSqk/?igshid=nqfl1x6y4fzj

    So privileged to be able to run on the Milwaukee lakefront and riverfront today. Nice to run in a place where this high temperature is lower than the low temp in Texas. @ Milwaukee, Wisconsin https://www.instagram.com/p/B07OiOzHxJL/?igshid=4p0hlr9hk75

    From NobelPrize https://twitter.com/NobelPrize on Twitter: In developing quantum mechanical theory, physicist Paul Dirac, born #OTD, predicted that all matter has a kind of mirror image - antimatter. Dirac's theory would later be proved experimentally. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1933 which he shared with Erwin Schrodinger. https://twitter.com/NobelPrize/status/1159345255101227008/photo/1 https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/60251

    Day 7 of being Physics DGS: teaching assistant assignments completed with very little drama. It is time to move on to the more serious and notable challenge: a curriculum discussion in the department!
