Week 8 update

This week was an extremely productive week, I finished page 2 of the proposal, sent another email not only to Broward Transportation regarding the bench but also to Dr. Simmons, head of FGCU's solar program, asking him if he would be willing to be a mentor. I updated the parts list with a few minor differences in price. The letter for Ms. Brown was sent and signed, and I am in the process of updating the blog with more details.
