+ | Teaching point:\\ In A, bars 4 and 8 there is a moment at end of orbit/back to back where the turn | ||

+ | In mid January 2008 we had a snowstorm that dropped twelve inches of snow in Ashland (the | ||
+ | biggest accumulation since the 1960s). Southern Oregon University, where we both work, was | ||
