As mentioned in my last post, I’ll be on the road again for another couple weeks. This time in NYC, Pennsylvania, and Ithaca spending time with good friends, academics, and good academic friends.
Speaking of travels and good friends, my old friend and roommate from 2004-5 Bristol days, SJ, was here yesterday and we took to the country roads just outside of Bristol. It’s amazing – and all too easy to forget – how beautiful and peaceful the countryside is and just how close it is.
Things around here have been hectic with the travels, some deadlines, new people coming and going in our house, and all the rest. But it’s nice to know all that can simply fade away with time spent with a good friend, some sunshine, and a cool breeze.
