The IKidarod preschoolers have voted, and they’ll be following Jesse Terry for this year’s Iditarod. They were super excited about all the dog profiles. We’ll keep everyone posted on our adventures this year. #uglydogs #iditarod

Flowers for Henri and Henriette Henon, visionary manufacturers of the camper trailer in the 1930s. In 1944, they hid an injured American airman in a luxury caravan in the woods near Albert, which honestly had to be a fairly strange experience.

closeup detail of a winged skull on a gravestone

A lovely thing about this era of gravestones from the Lamson family shop in Charlestown, Massachusetts is the occasional mix of carving depths. This stone (John Tufts, d.1728, Malden) is mostly carved in the usual deep style, but also has a lightly incised medallion that reminds me of embroidery.

I just wish I could do a full-time PhD or DrPH at this point. But I had to leave a PhD program due to illness and those incompletes did become an F.
