The Wheeler Contingent in Oregon

I wish I had a camera so I could follow Claire up with some bits of spring in the Willamette Valley. It's cloudy today, but the rhododendrons and dogwood blooms are breath-taking. The lilacs are coming out just about now as well.

This week is looking full -- a paper due, The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test to read, CharlieNotes to do, deponent verbs to memorize, Euclid to sweat over, and hopefully some pleasant hours of running to balance it all out.

Spring term lasts only six more weeks -- six short weeks and then home for three precious months. Our plans for those months involve camping, Faith (yay!!), Zack's graduation, Hill Abbey, Cannon Beach, and hopefully many read-aloud hours with Harry Potter, right, Claire and Brennan? :) I am holding out hope of a chance to visit the beach sometime.

Now that Claire has graciously refreshed my memory on how to post, lol, I hope to write more often, so that she will no longer be the "lonely poster". :)

Now back to deponent verbs and the middle voice. :)

love,
Madelaine

  1. I should amend that: what Claire *actually* had to do was remind me of what my gmail address and password were so that I would be able to post, lol!
