September 1 is Departure Day. I have one last contra dance gig the night before, in Durham, NC, with Julie Gorka. (She might have to keep an eye on my tempos that evening!) That Saturday will be the day where I actually have to finish packing the two suitcases and see if they close...
My first week there will be busy getting set up in postgrad dorm, registering with a doctor, getting a bank account, finding my classes, and figuring out bus routes. I'll also be a tutor for Scottish Culture and Traditions (SCaT: their website is http://scottishculture.org/), teaching an evening course in American fiddle tunes, and I'm very much looking forward to that.
Classes begin Sept. 10! I will post updates as I find out about life in Aberdeen, and will add more pictures, too.
