even as we came across Dimitri Gondicas
and then noticed Cara and her friend behind us before the walk ended.
Passover was around the corner but it was a beautiful Sunday so we went for a walk and there behind us were Jane and RHB

and then noticed Cara and her friend behind us before the walk ended.
My camera was repaired so we headed to Best Buy to pick it up and took a few undated photos to test
before recording Ben in the camera section of the store.
Everything got started when it was the evening of the seder with the table set
some foods prepared
the matzah in place
as the kugel
and chicken appeared
and plates were ready for gefilte fish
even as cheese was being shredded
as Jane caught a few Zs
and Ben polished a position paper
while Suzanne dressed for the occasion
before OtherJane arrived
and Jane held court
as I wore my Passover outfit
as Jeff arrived
and he and Jane conversed
until the Davis'es
Len and Judy
and Zach Balin arrived.
I didn't record the service but then the food appeared beginning with my salad (no fish for me)
as the people began to eat
and my wine
and wind up matzah ball
distracted me from the eggs that needed salt water
as these photos of me
and the others assembled captured the scene

as my salad was completed
and Geofferson and OtherJane posed as each tried on my hat
before the soup arrived
followed by beet salad
chicken
brisket
more chicken
carrots
potatoes
asparagus
and another potato dish
before this was my meatless plate in 2 views.
After all of this food we still seemed able to abide the cake
and fruit
and a macaroon which made my dessert plate look like this
as the 2 Janes
and Suzanne
wondered when the Afikomen would emerge from here
so that Cathy
Len, Judy, Jeff and Zach
and Jane, Dave and Ben could join us for the second part of the seder.
Back at work, Diedrick Graham, the new Ombuds person came to say hello.
Several days later, Tara Kinsey
and Susan Simonelli from development came for a chat
and when I got home Melissa O'Donnell (nee Mosca) was visiting.
The next night at the Keller Center celebratory dinner, I took this photo of Don Dixon '69.
And we ended the week with a celebratory dinner at which these were my slow cooked vegetables with an organic egg to boot.
