Yesterday we headed up for a quick visit to Hillsdale. Usually we’ve gone for homecoming or weddings; this time, we just wanted to hang out with professors and look around. We saw Blackstock, Reist, Somerville, Conner, Kalthoff, Moreno, Stewart, Smith, and Whalen (and Sandi, my boss in the development office all four years). And said hi to a couple others in passing. We went through the new student center, admired the new front to the library (the fishbowl looks stranger than ever now that Kresge is gone!), ventured into Delp basement, and hit up the bookstore. I wanted to check out the new classroom buildings because I STILL haven’t been inside, but the kids were starting to lose it after five hours of socializing with grownups (only Dr. Stewart had toys in his office–he collects rubber duckies now) with no naps. So I’ll have to come back again…
Of course we had to hit up Oakley, so we took Andy there for lunch and gave Tommy his first Oakley sandwich. Actually, both kids loved the world’s best sandwiches as much as we do!
Did Tommy finish the whole sandwich??
Fun! It makes me want to go visit again…
No, he didn’t manage the whole sandwich in one sitting. But between the two of them, both kids ate it for lunch and dinner. =)
What a bargain!
I miss Oakley and you guys! State College is only 8 hours from Chapel Hill…
Wow, that means we’d better make the 4th bedroom the “Uncle Piko” room because you’ll be there all the time, right?
Piko. When are you coming to visit us? After baby is born??? It’s soon, so that makes sense. But make sure you do come!!!
And I miss Oakley, too. Oh man.
