These were a few days where my various lives headed in different directions. To the extent that there was a central theme, it was based in the desire of humanists to return to the past. To that end, I began by going over to Jones Hall on Monday to meet Andras Hamori IMG_0410 who chairs the Near Eastern Studies Department. On Tuesday, I went to lunch with Mark Johnston IMG_0411 who chairs the Philosophy Department and then went to Woolworth Hall to meet with Scott Burnham IMG_0412 who chairs and Marilyn Ham IMG_0413 who manages the music department.

Back at home, the pasta IMG_0414 was still going and Mary IMG_0415 had stopped by to visit along with Kaylen IMG_0416 and Sarah IMG_0417 who lives here these days. The chess board IMG_0418 was symbolic as the friends since Nursery School IMG_0419 IMG_0420 IMG_0421 posed for the requisite pictures.

Next, it was time to take photos of the furniture that was injured in the move -- the basket IMG_0422 IMG_0423 in 2 views, the tabletop IMG_0424 and the lampshade IMG_0425 IMG_0426 also in 2 views.

By Wednesday, the Continental theme had gotten to Benjamin IMG_0427 who was dressed for school and carrying his pocket watch IMG_0428 even though he seemed capable of watching television IMG_0429 a major anachronism.

Suzanne stopped by Johnson Park and saw Benjamin and Bobby IMG_0430 IMG_0431 IMG_0432 playing jacks as the crowd gathered IMG_0433 IMG_0434 in other activities that could not interfere with their jacks game IMG_0435 Inside, there were the quilling activities IMG_0436 IMG_0437 IMG_0438 IMG_0439 IMG_0440 as another group sewed IMG_0441 and Benjamin IMG_0442 looked the part of a continental merchant. After a few final images IMG_0443 IMG_0444 Suzanne left the Continental period leaving me to capture these pictures of Sandie Bermann. IMG_0445 IMG_0446
