And so break is pretty much over. I have a few hours left before my 8:30 class... but I’m going to be spending at least seven of them sleeping and the others will be spent getting ready to go to class. In some respects, I’m sad because I’ve enjoyed being on break, but really I’m still excited about this quarter and so in some ways it is good break is coming to a close.
I had the opportunity to do some neat things over break. After spending several days doing a lot of nothing, I went to Canton, OH to the National Football Hall of Fame with some friends. It was pretty cool, definitely worth at least one trip. Friday was of course St. Patricks Day, so some of us went out for some green beer - that was fun.
Saturday I went to the Franklin Park Conservatory. I went with two people from Montana, a mother and daughter, who are here because the daughter, Hillary, has been ill and one of two specialists she needs is at Children’s Hospital here in Columbus. Additionally, they are friends of Mark Ramseth, the president of Trinity. I also went with Linda Koch who is Mark’s secretary and a friend of mine. Anyway, Franklin Park Conservatory pretty much focuses on horticulture and has a bunch of different plants in different types of ecosystems inside the main building. They also, every year, release newly hatched butterflies in one of the parts of the building each day. We went for that and even got to hold some of the butterflies. It was awesome. I have pictures which I will put up eventually... just probably not tonight.
That’s probably it for now... look for more as the quarter gets into full swing.
