I can now officially announce that my brilliant husband has been accepted to the University of Maryland and in the fall will enter into a Ph.D. program in Physics!  We’re about to get poor, but we’re ready for the wild ride ahead.  Onward and upward!  Congratulations to my man!

I really like parades.  It’s like a huge party in the middle of the street that all your neighbors are invited to.  George was suspiciously quick in agreeing to come with me to the Old Town Alexandria St. Patrick’s Day parade.  Turns out he just wanted to sit in a coffee shop and do homework (boring!).  But I had fun on the street.

One more from Chicago.
