Hello!

I feel like I'm in a dream. Or have just awakened from one. For just over two weeks we have been getting used to our new place. For the most part I am working no harder than ever before. Things have fallen into a relatively normal routine, and yet in another way, it takes more energy to blog, to respond to emails, to do research. I think I'm still in the learning curve, taking in new stimulus and adapting to it. As a result, I have not been posting here to tell you anything. I thought I'd be writing every day to talk about NEW THINGS--of which there are many, I promise you--but so far, I'm just too tired.

I mean, I will tell you that I really love walking one short block to downtown, stopping by The Good Life cafe for some excellent java, perusing Booksmart, getting delicious mexican food and, just a few blocks up and over, hitting the library--which has the most comprehensive collection I've ever seen for such a tiny location. There's a lot to love here.

Instead, i'll let the photos do the talking
