On Wednesday, Dansyl, Larry and Janet posed in the faculty room Janet sat in the provost's seat and Larry and Syl stood by the president's place before we went back to the hotel to see Dick and Fran who had arrived and Syl and Larry and Janet Dan and Dick sat by the fire as I took these self portraits before heading home to see all the food preparations as Josephine worked away before I went to Sarah's room to pick her up as she and Ed sat on the bed and I admired the photos and the packed baggage before heading home to see one table set and another in process as the sweet potatoes (no marshmallows) were in preparation as Jane and Sarah were watching the Gilmore girls as Ben convinced Sarah that she should check email as she Ben Jane Suzanne and I got ready to go to dinner at Lahiere's.

Once there, we ran into Caroline Clancy and Bob Barnett before settling in to dinner. All were assembled on sides of the table as Fran posed and then Jane and I took this self portrait as Ben read the menu and Sarah and Ed and Larry and Janet enjoyed Dansyl's hospitality as we perused the menu and the vegetarian had time to take this profile shot as the bread came along with my martini. This was the bread and these were the appetizers

interrupted by the pictures of the family before the places were cleared for the main courses

which raised everyone's spirits

before I took a few group photos

as the waitress returned for another group picture into which I had planned to paste this picture of myself into the group all organized when the official Lahiere's photographer arrived and took these few photos of all of us after which dessert could be served Ben could pose with the waitress and we could finish our meal

before heading home to the task of putting away the toilet paper and calling it a day.
