CC graduated a day after me….in a city five hours away. It made for a long but fantastic weekend filled with family, friends, food, ceremonies, and some sleep.
CC helps to design, build, and race ‘Baja’ cars every year. This year’s car is nearly ready and will be raced the beginning of June.
The whole family.
With the parentals (yeah…CC’s height is not normal for our family).
The biological kids.
With the wife.
Yeah…he’s done with school and off to vacation and then a job!

Before ceremony with hood in hand.
Being hooded by my advisor.
Receiving diploma.
Triumphant.
With my advisor after the ceremony.
With the family minus youngest brother (he was in Cleveland due to his ceremony the next day).
In front of the ‘Golden Dome’.
On the balcony of the Main Building, home to the ‘Golden Dome’.
The hood in all of its glory.
Again, on the balcony of the Main Building, the Basilica in the background.
My favorite globe on campus.

Last weekend I returned to Indy for BQ’s graduation from IU’s Master of Social Work program. 
BQ has been a kindred spirit through the past few years as we have both been working on our respective degrees. She started working on the degree part-time while working full time–back when she was still single. Since then she switched to working on the degree full time, got engaged and then married. She excelled at the program she chose, and has worked hard to prepare to be a social worker. As we sat on her front porch a few weeks ago, we laughed about how we have both just finished another batch of schooling and are preparing for what we hope to be fulfilling, though not highly lucrative careers. So here is a shout-out to a kindred spirit who got to wear a fantastic robe, cap, and hood last weekend!

The day after I returned home, I had a lovely brunch with two of my girls: RC and SR. It was delightful! For those of you who have followed this blog for a while and know the third ‘girl’, LL, she was on her way back from the Kentucky Derby. Fun times for all!

ok…I’ve been back for a while, so these posts are a bit delayed….
Here I chilled with brother CC and sister-in-law EC. Highlights include the farmer’s market, great food (think salmon, crepes, fresh raspberries), spending a day replacing the speakers and stereo in George (aka ‘ my faithful car’), and riding on CC’s motorcycle.
For the record, in this picture I am in an empty parking lot in first gear…I am much more practiced at being a passenger!

Spent a couple days chilling with brother MC in Atlanta. In this picture he is finding out that he has lost a bet…good thing we just bet a beer.
Meet MC’s girlfriend
LL. She has been the inspiration of MC’s starting to cook. MC wowed me with two outstanding breakfasts and three fantastic dinners. May they continue to cook to create many a good meal together!
