Off to Minneapolis

My daughter Carey, husband James, and the darlin' little Eleanor Rea are departing for Minneapolis and the University of Minnesota the end of June. James has received a prestigous fellowship and stipend from the American Studies department to teach and complete his PhD, a process that should take four or so years. Ellie celebrates her first birthday August 1st...an event this grandmother will sorely miss. I will be saving my pennies for a flight to the land of 10,000 lakes!
