Disneyland Video

Here’s a video I recorded with my cell phone at Disneyland during sabbatical. Not bad…
The video perfectly captures the feeling of sabbatical at about 1:03. ;-)

First Day of School

Taking pictures on the first day of school is a tradition too good to break. Apparently, rain on the first day of school is, too.
