Another significant date... Powerful images remain. Who doubts that the actions of one have an impact of world events?
Anyway, we have completed the 1st week of school. I think I will call it a draw. I have enjoyed talking with my students and getting them to think about significant things but it is exhausting. Been very hot and the gravity thing takes it's toll. I notice it a lot when getting out of our little Toyota. It doesn't seem to matter where I park, it is always in a way that intensifies the impact of gravity on the exiting process. Up hill presses me against the seat in a way that is difficult to overcome, downhill tends to sent me running out the door and then clawing my way back up the side of the car. Sidehills exert odd pressures either out the door and down the hill or toward the passenger seat upon releasing the steering wheel.
You have to understand that some of our hills have a 40% grade so I have been told. That is a very steep hill. Many of them have lesser but still impressive grades. "Life on the Slant" is very interesting... I wonder if I can find a pizza place for a Friday night meal...

Do the Portugese recognize the importance of 9-11? I'm just wondering if it is discussed by the people, in newspapers, on tv?
ReplyDeleteps. I just posted a picture of Anna's daughter, Wren, at 6 mos. She's all cheeks and baby fat - very cuddily. I'll change it to a picture of me eventually, I guess, although, you'd probably rather see her. I'm looking forward to your pictures when you get a chance.
