it's been such a beautiful day. after getting korrina off to work, chanda practiced her violin and did her latin and math while i did duolingo german and italian. since her duncan class was cancelled for the day, we took a walk to the river before picking up some groceries and then having lunch back at home.
it was incredibly beautiful down by the river. and it was cold again: 20 degrees.
(note that the ice in the river is all gone . . it went fast with the 40 degrees we had yesterday).
our poor southern magnolia . . covered in snow. i hope it revives this summer. they had to trim it last summer.
it's interesting that the white oak tree's leaves don't completely fall off. it'll be interesting to watch it in these next coming weeks.
leftover lentil soup . .
writing about the magna carta, king john, the archbishop of canterbury, prince arthur and richard the lionhearted.
and then chanda had ballet and i made some phone calls and put dinner together before meeting my friend for a hot chocolate.
Why the oak keeps its leaves in winter: here.
