Day 31

Fencing: the Medieval Art of Sports. My brother (on the left) did a fantastic job this morning at his epee [prenounced: "ep" "ay"] tournament. In this particular bout, he defeated a much more advanced fencer.

Day 30

I was having fun editing this one. Ariel's showing off all the ones we got back from our waitress at Olive Garden, who did not understand what we were asking for.

Day 29

With the hall being empty this afternoon, Haley and I took turns leaping in the hallway. Great fun, as you can tell.

Day 28

When I'm not working, this is my J-Term. I do things I told myself I'd do "when I had time". Such as read a biography on people such as Jimmy Stewart. Why not?

Day 27

Tonight, after watching the State of the Union, I wrote my favorite quotes and stand-out words on a coffee cup. Sometimes I really do out-liberal myself.

Day 26

Forgive me, I dozed off before putting up today's photo. So there will be two for "Wednesday". On frigid to-the-bones weather like today, I try and think about summer. So I pulled up one of my old summer photos, which I haven't published on Facebook or anywhere else, so it's technically new. Vision of purple tulips and green grass keep me upbeat during the month of January.

Day 25

My current collection of books and movies based on the Imperial Romanov family. A couple are from the library here at Gustavus. But most are my own. It's a large fascination of mine.
