Wednesday, September 24th, 2008This was such a fabulous picture that Ben posted on his Facebook, I had to steal it so that others can enjoy it. This is Ben “working” in Switzerland.
Blogger Visit
Saturday, July 28th, 2007We have had a visit from the rehabilitated feminist.
It’s great to be able to put a name to a face and also to meet the rest of the family.
Thoughts
Sunday, July 22nd, 2007I’m not very good with catchy titles; can you tell? Today’s the first day after a two-and-a-half-week roller coaster ride, where I couldn’t look much at the scenery around me because I was too focused on what was placed right before me. Brenda of Coffee, Tea, Books, and Me wrote this:

Hardly knowing where to begin….
Friday, June 8th, 2007Some have been discussing what they’ll be doing for the summer and so I thought I’d add my plans. I really do plan on making up a reading list to participate in SeasonalSounding’s Summer Reading Challenge, but at the moment, I’m not sure how to prioritize my reading and to-do list. I rarely get everything [...]
Happy Birthday, Patrick Henry!
Tuesday, May 29th, 2007I’m almost too late for anyone to appreciate this, but today (May 29th) is Patrick Henry’s birthday. Five years ago today we visited his home in Scotchtown, Virginia. We had a wonderfully informative and interesting docent. Scotchtown is a little off the beaten path and so we happened to find ourselves the only visitors at [...]
History comes alive….in a cemetery
Tuesday, May 1st, 2007Click on the photo to bring up a larger view.
This is Oak Hill Cemetery in San Jose, California. We visited on our trip to California and Oregon when we were checking out Gutenberg College for Sam 2 1/2 years ago (boy, is Abbie short!). My grandparents are interred at this cemetery (I use that [...]
Greece Photos
Sunday, April 29th, 2007I wasn’t going to post the link for the photos from our trip to Greece until I had them all uploaded, but it appears it’s going to take me awhile. Some have specifically asked. Just know that there will be more to come, but unfortunately organizing photos isn’t a high priority these days. Be [...]
It’s easier than it looks….
Sunday, April 15th, 2007to change the site look like this with Wordpress software. I did lose a few things I had added to the other theme (quotes, LibraryThing), so I’ll either have to add them to this theme or forget about them. What I like about this theme is that it uses the whole width of the [...]
Back from Greece
Wednesday, April 4th, 2007We arrived home last night at about 6:45 pm. We left Athens at 6:11 AM and accounting for the 8 hour time difference, it took about 20.5 hours to get home. I can only sleep in little catnaps while flying, so I was exhausted. I got a good night’s sleep however and think that the [...]
Epidaurus to Olympia
Saturday, March 31st, 2007We had a wonderful stay at the hotel on the southern coast of the eastern part of the Peloponnese. The hotel was right on the beach. We slept with the door to our room open. It was very peaceful. This morning we drove east to Epidaurus where one of the three centers for seeking help [...]
