The semester is over and Don has been restless. He found an archeological dig near by and volunteered. He will start in a week or so. I found out about a school for the arts up on Mount Scopes that teaches silver smiting, but haven't checked it out yet. I need to figure out which bus goes there. The Hebrew class at the YMCA is both fun and difficult. The way words are constructed is logical, much more logical than the English language, and I enjoy figuring out the word from the Hebrew letters. The part I have trouble with is memorizing words. I can read the symbols and figure out what the sounds are, but have no idea what the word means. Memory work has always been hard for me, I do better with logic. Don is working much harder at this than I am and does better at memorizing too. Some times I think, "Why am I doing this? After two years I will have no need for it.), but to see how another language works, is interesting. It's been nice here. Weather is a big issue for us here because, with out a car, we are out walking in it a lot. The temperature has been mostly in the 70s, but some times warmer. During winter, ants would only come into our apartment when we left food out. Now they come in all the time, I think they are looking for water. They aren't very big (they look like flecks of pepper walking around), but, get into everything, and I don't like them. Don sprays, but that doesn't last long.

I wasn't sure if I would tell you this, but decided to, this is an interesting discovery, and also a warning........................If, you are in the shower, happily minding your own business..............and a smart-aleck comes into the room.....................and you get even by directing the shower head over the shower curtain at the smart-aleck....................and the water hits the light bulb, which of course is on........................... there will be a big explosion, and both you and the smart-aleck will be showered with glass. In case you ever encounter this situation, you will know what to expect. More later..............
