Pam and I are managing to have some fun and also get some things accomplished. She’s going to try to write a book chapter or two while she’s here… after she finish grading papers and reviewing dissertation chapters. Whew!

I’m loving my break from grading.  I don’t have to grade papers until May!  This Fulbright scholarship is such an incredible blessing.

Don’t I have the cutest professor? Dr. Eddy knows her way around this town. Here she’s setting out for a quick errand without me.

After my meetings yesterday (morning and lunch), I attended a school faculty meeting…

…and then grabbed coffee (i.e., OJ for me) with some colleagues.

Pam and I headed to the Church restaurant/bar for dinner…

…we’d both had it on our list of places to eventually eat.

The food was delicious. Unfortunately, they seated us in a very busy corner… practically in the kitchen.

After dinner, we headed to the Cobblestone…

…we got to hear Pat Goode, Mick O’Grady, and crew (including Fergus Wheelan who sings from time to time). When we got home, Pam curled up with his fascinating book “Dissent into Treason.”

Fergus’ wife joined us at the pub last night, too.

And a musician Kitty Lee, Patty, and I heard play at Palace Bar joined in the merrymaking at the Cobblestone last night.
