DAVE'S INTERVIEWS

They are ALL done. Every once in a while Luke will randomly cheer "Daddy home, yah!" After 12 interviews he is home and relieved. We can't believe that this medical school thing is coming to an end in the next few months. It has been long and it has been hard, but hats off to Dave for working so, so hard and hardly ever complaining. Now we are waiting to see where we will be moving to in 4 months for residency. We find out towards the end of March.
Here is where he has interviewed at and our future home. Vote on your top choice. (Of course it depends on how much he likes the program, the match process and blah blah blah but it is fun to get every one's two cents in anyway).
In random order


1. U of U - UT
2. Dallas, Tx
3. Lubbock, Tx
4. Philadelphia, PA
5. Hershey, PA
6. Tucson, AZ
7. Cleveland, OH
8. Toledo, OH
9. Detroit, MI
10. Little Rock, AR



Cute Dave in Michigan doing interviews and staying with Jackson and Cara. I let Dave take the camera for this week, only if he promised me really good pictures of where we could possibly move. Let me tell you he delivered (please note the major sarcasm). Here are the pictures that I am just dreaming of.






I think these are of the Cleveland, Toledo, Detroit area. Don't they just make you want to pack up right away and move to this area?! But seriously I think these areas are normally nice and have a lot going for them (I hope), I just think these particular freeway shots are so funny.




This shot on the other hand DOES make me want to move to Michigan. Dave's brother Jackson is going to dental school there and his sister Ali and her husband are doing a residency there. That is a big plus to moving to this area. In the end I think we will be happy in any of these places but please note that I am scared to death of the cold. AZ has changed my internal thermostat forever.




**Thanks to Jackson & Cara, the Sorensens and the Parkers for letting Dave bunk up at your nice houses and for serving him gourmet meals. I am jealous.
