I've had a great couple days leading an educational tour for middle school students from the US around Reykjavík, the Golden Circle, Þórufoss, Hveradalir Geothermal Area, & the 2021 Reykjanes eruption site❤️
The pic is me talking about the history of Iceland's parliament at Þingvellir National Park.

The dissertation is defended, the paperwork is filed, and my manuscript is formatted for @umasslibraries.bsky.social . There always seems to be another step in any PhD program, but (I think?) I'm now truly done!
