Driving home from a crazy rush trip to school to sign some papers, I noticed that the bank building is gone from Tooner's Corner. Just up and gone.

Still working on those socks.

There is an art show this fall at the museum and I submitted my mural. The curator contacted me to see how I could fit a 150' mural in a 5' space. This is my idea.

My student graduated! Hooding her was really special. In the late afternoon she came over to Mom's house for a celebration dinner. The cake was so good :)

Last day of the curriculum- all the children were successful designing their devices. Afterwards we went to dinner with Jes in Santa Monica. We walked all over and went down to the beach and ended up at the SM pier. We spent some time back at Jes's apartment and then had to say goodbye. We will see her again in July for her 32nd birthday.

Today I showed up at the elementary school at 8:30 and started watching a teacher teach my curriculum. It's like watching a play you've written. Way cool!

Then I walked up the bluff back to our apartment. 

We have an apartment in the back of this house.

Isn't it cool? The bed is too small though. Only 6' long and very narrow. We had a rough night's sleep last night. 

We picked up Jes for dinner in Venice. We had a great dinner at a vegetarian place.

Then we took some funny pictures, dropped her off, came back to the apartment, fixed the toilet (long story) and I graded papers.

We spent last night with Jes. I finished my sock today. Now for the second sock! We checked out a local farmer's market and I bought some strawberries, flowers, and oranges. Then we drove to Pasadena to see my aunt and uncle. They made us a delicious lasagne dinner with pear tarte for dessert. Then we checked into our apartment on the bluff overlooking the elementary school.
