Sitting on the Boathouse porch. Loving it. Breakfast with the great blue heron, the cormorants and the gulls.

Back from Hyden to an ailing cat friend
Back from 5 days in Hyden for Clinical Bound. A lovely group of students, good faculty to work with -- generally the kind of teaching experience we would all wish for! If these groups could be like this all the time I would be a lot more eager to make that 7 hour drive ( Read more... ) -
