My favorite photo of the Summer
It’s been an amazing experience living and working on top of Mt Washington this summer. After this week I’ll be heading back to Penn State University for one more semester before graduating with a degree in Meteorology. I haven’t had much time to reminisce about being up here this week, since I’ve been busy training the new fall intern Kevin as well keeping up with what’s turned out to be a busy week so far.
I’d like to thank everyone who supports the observatory. We really couldn’t do all of our work without your support. I’d also like to thank all of my co-workers for being great to work with and live with (Marty counts as a co-worker I suppose). I’ve got to work and do what I love up here for a Summer and I’m looking forward to the future and whatever it may bring for my career. I’ll always remember the Mount Washington Observatory as the place that started it all. Thanks and take care!
