Evening on campus.
Dan and I had dinner on campus, but at a new place. It is in the old movie theatre, that was recently renovated. We ate outside and had a view of the chapel, as shown below. We walked around for a bit afterwards and Dan took me to see the pink lady’s slippers in the second picture, which are apparently rather rare.
Sunset Rock with Eric.
We went to a new to me location, behind the Assembly. The light was pretty glorious when we first arrived. I took these two with my phone.
Party projects.
We had Luke’s birthday party yesterday. 20 plus kids, but it went pretty well. We spent a lot of time preparing and it all went really well. This week I built a couple of things for the party – a mobile sand box and a table and bench set. The latter was finished about 20 minutes before the party started.
Yanahli this morning.

Eclipse.
Things went quite a bit differently than expected, but in the end I was able to make a brief trip up to Wickliffe, Kentucky to see the total solar eclipse. My location was a bit underwhelming, but the eclipse itself was still magical. It was a three and a half hour drive each way. Fortunately I was able to leave before traffic became terrible.
Trail cam.
Luke got a trail cam as a belated Christmas present, and we have set it up at the edge of the back field. So far we have seen rabbits, armadillos, squirrels, birds, possums, and a deer. Oh, and also a fox and a bobcat. The pictures haven’t been great, but here are a few.
