Not that I was ever that “gone,” since my internet access was better than I thought it might be. But now I have returned to the EMUTalk.org world headquarters, where I am sure to spend much of the next few days a) being cold and damp, and b) working to get ready for the winter 2009 term teaching I’ll have to do as part of my day-job.
But at the risk of disclosing the location of my in-laws’ home, I thought I would post a link here to a post I wrote on my own blog about a topic of Ypsi-Arbor interest. My wife and son and I took a little tour of Ave Maria, the town and university founded in Ypsi-Arbor and (in the process of being) moved down to the middle of the swamp in southwest Florida, a place where you will rarely see the words “zoning laws” in the same sentence. It was, um, strange.
Here’s a link to my blog entry.
The photos of Ave Maria look like a mish mash of architecture mostly built with dry vit.
