[nagdu] Elmo is Retiring

[Margo and Elmo]

what's the weather like then, like, do the temps go above 70 degrees? 
should I take a variety of clothing for various climates.  I recall being in 
the May June class in 1981 and we started out kind of cool and rainy for a 
few days and then it got really hot.
