Long Weekend

Grace and I had Veterans' Day off; I had class on Friday, gave tests in all my classes, then spent a big chunk of the weekend grading them with football games in the background... oh, and we did get in what the two of us decided is the last garage sale of our lives... I think we may have covered our expenses; boxed what was left for a variety of charities...Kara had a great time and is back from NY; Tim's soccer season ended with a 2-0 loss to High Point College... he is optimistic that they'll have a stronger team next fall.

Yay, made it to the weekend!
My daughter sent this while I was explaining stem-changing verbs to my 5th period Spanish I class... she's in "The Big Apple" through next Wednesday and took it at the entrance to New York University, where her grandfather Frank Kynast earned his BS in Civil Engineering some 55 years ago...

Last Day in October

Tim got to play the last seven minutes of yesterday's game against Wofford... by then they were down 2-0 to their coach's old team... they're going to have to figure out a way to start putting the ball in the net soon; just two games left in the regular season and then the conference tournament...Linda Richardson sent this picture showing TK between three defenders breaking toward goal...

One of the advantages of a large school is that it's easier to offer a wider range of electives... a sample of work from one of our student's photography class... "splash art"
