Here we have a stately blue jay who can't figure out why I don't just leave him alone, and a young cardinal (I think) who seemed as curious about me as he was wary.

A variety of lovely flowers

The most prevalent flower right now is the magnolia - the flowers are huge and are also unusual and fascinating if you stop and really look at them. They also smell nice :-)

Then there is that ever present aspect of life at Tech...construction. I think the fraction of campus that is fenced off for construction is growing daily.

I went to Alumni Weekend at Mudd. You would never come across this at Tech:

I got to see the Shakespeare play

and a hummingbird nest

among a variety of other things. Visiting felt like going home, but this

is home now too, so life is good.


Pretty flowers:



Oh! I have a new herb garden! It smells delicious and is full of tasty things :-) It also has a pretty silhouette.

Smile!
