Oh! I’m back

I should probably have mentioned it before, but life quickly got quite busy …. I put some photos of our trip here.
Now that homeschooling season is here, most of my online time seems to be going to my learning-notes journal, Schola et Studium.
What I’ve been doing, besides normal daily-life-and-homeschooling:
Re-reading Latin Centered Curriculum, (more info here).
Also, another book my father had on his shelves which he passed on to me: The Western Canon by Harold Bloom. (Here’s the short list)
On Ragamuffin Rosie’s sidebar, I found a neat LCC blog called A Bit of Bubbly. I just love beautiful reading lists and forms, and her blog has a bunch of them.
Here’s a picture taken from my parents’ back porch — I think Bierstadt would have loved that view….oh, I miss my home state, though the California Sierras are definitely a consolation.
(sorry about the thumbnail, but I can’t figure out how to resize the photos on wordpress, so they seem to turn out too large when I try to post them full size. You can click on the photo to enlarge it though).
There isn’t a spot back there to resize things…. but :) if you click the Code tab while you edit, you can fiddle with the height/width on the image tag to get it to *display* in the size you want. It doesn’t actually resize the file though.
I kind of like thumbnails you can click to embiggen. That is an amazing view. Glad you had a good trip.
Breathtaking photo!
Welcome back :)
