    So I am sitting here waiting for the first lecture to begin. Pete doesn't seem to be here yet. I think the first lecture is on defensible tree appraisals so I wouldn't blame him for sleeping in. The timing is perfect for an indoor day as a major winter storm is coming through today and we're...
