Scattered Family

I'm not usually up this late (early), but we've been watching Cold Mountain and I'm still wide awake.  That means I'll be out of it tomorrow, when I have to get organized to leave at the crack of dawn the next day for a week-long teaching institute on AP World History in Michigan. 

Next week my family will be spread all over the place.  Oldest son, still camp

counseling in the mountains of .  His brother, in a country

  convulsed by the Tour de France:

which he was going to Paris to see -- but he's decided it will be too crowded and too expensive.  Their sister, off playing

 at     camp.  Me , up north, learning

        something, we hope, about world history:  ...and my husband, holding down the fort at home and on the internet  banking scene, the only one among us traditionally occupied:  http://www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk/liverpoollife/exhibitions/living/banking.asp. 

 So let's hope that although, from this  viewpoint, we are widely dispersed, we are all ok and thinking of each other.   Have a great week, everyone!
