Postcards from the edge

I'm still sequestered somewhere away from Mystery City, working madly on grant proposals and spending some quality time with my family. How are these things co-existing? Not so well. But at least it's pretty here.

But anyways, I wanted to offer to send my dear blog readers a postcard from our mystery destination. Anyone who wants a postcard from our scenic destination just needs to drop me an email (science dot woman at google's mail service) by the end of the day on Monday.

I can't promise that postcards will actually be postmarked from the vacation (and they may even postdate the submittal of the next grant proposal), but I'm also not going to make postcards contingent on a donation to our DonorsChoose challenge. But hey, if you want to give, you'll be eligible to win a t-shirt and I'll match your moola.
