The wedding reception was out an an old estate in the country. Very pretty. Dan wore a Barong, the traditional formal wear of the Phillipines (the bride is Filipino). It looked silly at first, but there were so many men wearing them, I got used to it quickly.

Tonight Dan and I went to our friends' rehersal dinner and got these Leis because it was a Luau-themed picnic. Frisbee inherited them after the evening was over.

Today I went to meet with the teacher I'll be working with in the fall. We'll call her Miss Smith. Anyway, Miss Smith did a design project the opposite of my dissertation project- she had kids build something around a soda can to keep a hot liquid hot. Look how many kids have the misconception that aluminum foil is a good insulator!

This Jeffersonia diphylla, also called twin-leaf, was a gift from a student many years ago. Each spring it blooms more and gets bigger. Here it is blooming. When we move, it's going with us.
