I watched The Open Championship from St. Andrews today. Like most of the folks watching, I was rooting for Rory McIlroy. He didn’t putt well. There is an old adage out there about putting for dough. That rang true today. Hard to root against Cameron Smith. He is the Aussie who won it. He did putt well. Did he ever.
I have said it many times. When the light is right you can get a fine picture. I took this one recently as I was walking around the North Harrison campus. Did not plan it. Just looked to my right and stopped in my tracks. Glad I did.
Along my regular walking trail around home, I took these pictures recently.
Nothing like an Indiana hay field.
This steak was on the grill the day the Ole Miss Rebels won the College Baseball World Series last month. I think it tasted better than it looks. It was a good one. So was the College World Series. Hotty Toddy!
Upstairs in Crestview Hall on the campus of Indiana University Southeast. I took this photo not long ago. It was in one of these rooms where I had class with old friend Millard Dunn leading the charge. I was late for class (and I was NEVER late) and he rode me like a old mule. The whole class sat up and opened their eyes wide. They couldn’t believe it either. After Millard had humilitated me, and class was back to order as he needed, the door to the room opened again. A lady named Constance was later than I was. I looked back and yelled, “It’s about damn time!” And the class erupted in laughter. In earnest, I never saw Millard laugh and smile like he did that day. Priceless. I love this place.
My room location changed. I have moved to Room 127 at North Harrison. This is my little corner of it. I am so looking forward to getting the school year started. Teaching English full time again this year. Good times.
Recently I brought this photo out of moth balls. I told #19, Jim Titus standing next to my Dad on the left, that while the peons were celebrating he and my Dad were concentrating on what to do next. It was a nice night for the Cougars.
In 1993, The Moody Blues embarked on a tour pairing them with orchestras all over the world. They were apprehensive at first. Did it work? Yes. I heard more orchestras play with The Moody Blues from 1993 to 1999 than I ever expected to hear in my life.
The photo above was taken during the Days of Future Passed 50th Anniversary Tour in 2017. This show was at The Fraze Pavilion near Dayton on July 1. I finally got my sister to a Moodies show before it was too late. She does have one hard head. Most of us do.
Have a great week and speak the rights!
