[summer break in 80 days] day 43
/
8:38 Showered, shaved and fed. No quite dressed yet.
8:55 I started reading a new book today, The Girls from Ames: A Story of Women and a Forty-Year Friendship
.
9:35 At the park. I wish we didn't have to do water aerobics today. Would rather not even swim. Oh well, I am dressed for it and I know I will feel better after we are done.
9:45 I just realized that our trip through University of Tampa was a photo walk. And we are walking through USF today. i should have brought the other cameras for the boys. Andy would just want to take video.
9:50 I just asked Ryan if I should get the cameras and he said no. I'll try to remember the P&S so Andy can take video, next time.
I just realized this morning that I promised Ryan a new bike for his birthday. Expensive birthday.
11:15 Done with swimming & aerobics and waiting for Andy to get changed. Fat man with black speedo was here. The last half hour, he was walking around the pool slowly. What?
11:29 At the bank. Oh those fries smell good but I can hold out. What I really want is something to drink.
2:22 Done with our mini tour of USF. We saw only 3 art pieces. Ryan would have loved to have had the full tour of the library. Another time. I saw some great places I want to come back to without kids. Itrained poured as we were leaving.
This is the communications building. I like the architecture.
The boys wanted to go inside.
This is the first sculpture we found. It's called Solar Rotary and on the summer solstice lines up perfectly with the circle below. It was hard to get a good shot of the whole thing.
What is with Libraries and that classic architecture of the forties and fifties? We will have to come back and tour the whole building. And they have an Starbucks inside!
This one called Unspecific Gravity but looks like a bunch of Mickey head balloons.
We got back in the car and drove to the other end of campus. We ended up parking at Moffitt. It brought back some memories.
This is called Maze and well, it was more like a maze to find it. They are building next to it and it seems lonely.
The boys really wanted to go up another elevator. Se we went back to mid-campus and found the parking garage. It's 8 stories tall and we parked on the roof. The boys were happy to go up and down and it was not crowded so we didn't bother anyone. I think Andy would have been happy to walk up and down the stairs as well.
4:56 home and relaxing. This time I uploaded my photos right away. 375 down to 175. Still quite few that might need some noiseware software.
8:52 L came over and bought some garage sale stuff for a friend of hers who missed it on Saturday.
Andy has been bugging me about his new recorder. I told him I couldn't order it today but that was wrong. The check has to clear first so it will tomorrow. He is a little upset that he has to wait until Tuesday. Will he understand he can't abuse his things? Probably not. I would love to get him another video camera but he just drops things too much.
I was SO good today. I had only ONE cookie for dessert after dinner.
