Late Night with Paul

Family


As night was falling over the South Dakota plains we heard a voice call out to us. It was Paul on his bicycle with his trusty canine companion, Marvin. Knowing that Paul had  put in a full day of teaching until 9:30PM Sunday and needed to be back in for orientation early Monday morning, we’d promised to not plan on partying late. But we had a delightful evening of conversation swapping family stories and tales of travel. He’s lived and taught many different places around the world and across the country. As we sat in the darkness and talked time slipped away. Finally just before midnight we stepped into the T@B and snapped a selfie to commemorate the moment then hugged one another. With that Paul and Marvin disappeared into the darkness for their short trip home. Hopefully we’ll see them again before too terribly long.

OUR VERY

LATEST

Imperial War Museum

Imperial War Museum

London’s Imperial War Museum in Southwark founded even as the First World War raged offers insights into the myriad costs of the wars of the 20th and 21st Centuries. It was a most disquieting but valuable reminder of the myriad costs of war.

London’s Canals

London’s Canals

The two of us have long been fascinated with the history of canals and their role in the history of transportation, industrialization, and more recently recreation. This stay in London has given us new opportunities to explore and learn more about how canals contributed to the growth of this great city and how they are being used and preserved today.

National Portrait Gallery

National Portrait Gallery

It was a most educational visit to the newly renovated National Portrait Gallery at Trafalgar Square in Central London. We were intrigued with the contemporary approach to presenting British History.
