Alison Hitchens borrowed an office in Davis this week so she could complete performance appraisals and notes that this "desktop background is a nice contrast to the snow outside!" Photo by Alison Hitchens.

Anne Fullerton snapped this photo as she was "editing a survey for Laura Bredahl at McDonald's in Cobourg. Reliable wifi 24/7. (visiting my mother in hospital)."
