I spent the week in Flagstaff doing some intensive doctoral studying. Back at the Flagstaff City/Coconino County Library. It opens at 9 a.m. and closes at 8 p.m. Breakfast at the hotel. Skipped lunch. Dinner afterwards. Back to the hotel and bed. Wash, Rinse, Repeat. I wanted to maximize my study time, so I arrived before it opened. There are a couple of good parking spaces and one of them was available. There are people waiting to get in. I believe some unhoused people stay in the library all day. I saw a lot of the same people all four days and I recognized a few from my August trip. I sat at the same table: two seats without electricity. Which is good because nobody else sits there and bothers me. There is a plug on the floor and I brought an extension cord. However, on Wednesday I made a tactical error: when the library opened, I went to the restroom first. By the time I got to my table someone was sitting there. I got another table on the other side of the library. I was okay but not as good as my table. Thursday, I did not play around and got to my table quickly. The library is less than 10 minutes from the hotel, which is affordable and nice. Very clean. I did not use the pool or sauna. While I still have a lot of data to analyze, overall it was a productive trip.
