This record of my trip has the most recent stuff at the top.
On most pages, you can click on any photo to get to a "slide show" of larger versions.
I'm back in Durham. The trip is over. Life is good.
- I got a great teaching job via a Skype interview. (But having taught there some years ago surely helped.)
- I bought a house
in Durham, sight unseen, after my older daughter saw it online. (She did drive over to look,
and also attended the inspection for me, so it wasn't quite as dramatic as all that.)
The house is near the job that starts in August and even closer to my local and favorite aunt.
Oh yes, I have pages still to create and upload - but not today :-)
