Go Bucks!
Claire and I are doing our part to support the Buckeyes today for their big game against Michigan. If I had been a missionary in Thailand when this rivalry started 103 years ago I suppose that I would have had to wait for 6 months or so to get a letter from someone in Ohio telling me about the result. Thanks to iTunes, however, I will be able to download and watch the game within the next couple of days. All I need to do is studiously avoid the internet until then for fear of learning what happned. I suppose that all of those pioneer missionaries who packed their belongings in coffins would probably be ashamed of me.
This morning Candice's friend, Tiang, invited us to go with her family to a pool at the school where her husband teaches. We had a fun time with them - and the water felt great. Eliza enjoyed playing in the water more than she has before.
