The weekend is nigh and, while there is not a lot of news, having a nigh weekend is celebration material enough, I think.
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving at our house last week. Everyone was there that we could reasonably have expected, even John, who only had a 48-hour hiatus from his job on tour with Pearl Jam. Some Christmas card pictures were taken that day – I won’t publish any of them and spoil the surprise, so this year you’re going to actually have to open what we send you to see what we look like, instead of placing it directly on the Recycle pile.
K demonstrating his very consistent serve in Monroe, MI
K played in his first USTA Junior tennis match last weekend in Monroe. He played two games of singles, and one game of doubles against a talented Monroe YMCA team. He was very evenly matched with his opponents, which is the goal of the organizers. We're impressed with his skills.
M and J went to the UM/OSU game last weekend. It was cold, which caused M to dress like this. UM lost by 1 point in a nailbiter.
Some links I’ve been saving up
Did you know this room existed? Next time I’m in Florida I’m going to see if I can get a tour of this.
I love the trains at Henry Ford Museum, these pictures are almost as good.
Automaton!
There is a ton of time left to buy me this for Christmas.
Robots! (although I like the cars the best)
You’ve probably never heard this musical instrument before. It’s a combination harpsichord, organ, and cello, invented by Leonardo somebody or other. More info.
