Smiles


Lady Vols 92 - Texas Lady Longhorns 67 (can you see us smiling!?!) John and Margaret went up for the game. They were happy campers when they got back here.

We got a good laugh at one of the stories on CBS Sunday Morning today. It was about wines. The reporter asked about the fact that wineries are all now going to screw-tops or plastic stoppers. The wine industry has been having problems with corks. Cork has become harder to get and more expensive. Also it is not of as good quality. So the industry is having to eat all those pronouncements it's been making for years about how only cheap wines have screw-tops - and that any wine of quality has a cork. It is funny to watch them work so hard to now make screw-tops acceptable.

Attendance at the student party at Studio 2 was pretty sparse. Publicity for it wasn't as good as usual - things just sort of fell through the cracks. And it was on, off, on again. But those of us who were there had a good time. And we did have a couple of people who were lost and wandered in - and they were delighted with what they found.

And now we start on a holiday week, shopping and cooking and figuring out when everybody is coming and going, etc., etc. Just the usual chaos.

Today's photo is more fall foliage from Shiloh National Military Park.
