Putnam Park

I was in Eau Claire briefly this past weekend--it was pretty quiet but still fun.  I hardly recognize the campus or the North End of the city.  Very different.  Last night I ate an exceptional but very simple meal.  Called the "board game," it was a variety of meats and breads, with grapes and apples.  The surprise was the the baked apples.  A surprising but very fitting compliment to the meal.  Oh, the wine was good, too!

Breakfast was more fun.  I ran into a former student/friend with her partner at breakfast and they "made" me join them.  It was great to catch up, and  breakfast was good, too!

I stopped by campus and visited Little Niagara along the mighty Chippewa River.  It is a campus icon, a place where more relationships started and where more secrets were shared than any single set of Snoopy sheets.  Ever.  It was nice to reconnect.
