Molly at Sunset

And here are some pictures of Molly enjoying a sunset on Ocracoke...


We've been taking turns here - first I got sick, then Molly, and now Zach is fighting it off. I'm glad that Molly is learning the concept of taking turns, but I'd prefer she practice with toys rather than her health. ;)

To make this cold even better, I was away most of the weekend taking an intensive class to prepare for my next set of Landscape Architecture licensing exams. It's all for a good cause (the health and safety of the precious public) but it's a pretty brutal process. Granted, any process that requires me to be away from Molly for the weekend might be considered brutal. But this Molly separation aside, this is no fun. According to the administering organization (CLARB), the passing rates for last year ranged from 38% on Section E to 74% for sections A & B. This is up from the previous years (they reorganized the test last year) in which Section E had a passing rate of just 27%. (Each section is taken and passed independently, so they don't keep statistics on the overall passing rate). For the record, I took Section C in December, I'll find out if I passed or failed in February or March, I'll take Sections A, B, & D in March, and Section E in June. If I failed Section C I'll take that again in June as well.
