Thanksgiving in Georgia

We journeyed down to Athens, Georgia to enjoy Thanksgiving with Douglas and do some sightseeing at the Un. of Georgia, Douglas' lab, and the town of Athens. We also had time to help Douglas (the primary chef) in the preparation of a 17 lb bird for the occasion - which he shared with three of his co-workers.

During the T-Day celebration, we also watched, as is required of a Douglas visit, USC handily defeat Arizona State. It was fun to spend time with Douglas and his co-workers, who were from Argentina and Brazil, especially as they tried to engage the fall pasttime of football.

A photo slide show of the visit is available by clicking here.

Pictured below is a photo of Douglas in action at the lab where he is currently doing research aimed at understanding the nature of a particular parasite that attacks the human body, particularly affecting people living in Latin America.
