Housing accommodations for my rural rotation

I finally got my housing situation figured out for my rural rotation, sort of. There was some sort of glitch with the online registration on the AHEC website and because of that the housing coordinators were not aware that I needed housing until last week. Moreover, because Kremmling is a new site, they didn't have a list of potential hosts to draw from. To complicate matters even further, it appears that my mentor's practice is in fact not located in Kremmling but instead in Granby, a town about a half-hour to the east.

Long story short: I will stay for the first few days of my rural rotation in an apartment at Kremmling Memorial Hospital and commute the 30 miles each day to my mentor's practice in Granby. In the meantime, the housing coordinators at AHEC will try to locate better accommodations for me a little closer to work.

It has been kind of strange for the past few days knowing that I will be heading off to the mountains but not having in my mind a clear idea of what to expect. I like a little adventure. I have no doubt that everything will work itself out, especially after talking with the housing coordinator at AHEC who feels so bad about my situation and is working hard to help me.
