Snow Day!



Yesterday school was snowed out. Roads are still pretty sketchy, but I braved the wider world to get in to campus this morning. These are a couple shots from my walk up to the Trail Room for lunch. I didn't do any sledding outside my office yet, but these kids did.



Following are a trio of photos from freshman swimmer Erik Khazoyan during his expedition around campus Sunday when the snow was fresh (and still coming down).

Turkey with my favorite team


Thanksgiving has come and gone. So many things happening that blogging has fallen, oh so briefly, by the wayside. No longer!

Just before the team left town for Thanksgiving, they threw a holiday dinner in one of the on-campus apartments. Just like last year, I was pleased to see our team's classroom and swimming prowess extends to the kitchen, as well.

When my wife and I got there, we smelled the feast from the lobby downstairs. My wife brought a cauldron of her family-recipe punch and we all washed down delicious turkey, potatoes, stuffing, pies and several more things I know I consumed in the haze of eating. Oh right, Grace’s cookies (I had two and they tasted like fudge).

I love holidays with the team.
