Just got off of a very fun Zoom reunion with the members of my 1979-80 IES classmates in Vienna. I hadn’t seen most of them in 41 years.I only knew 4 of them.. but it was so great hearing everyones stories. I even dressed up in my 1979 lederhosen for the occasion

We shared stories of friends and food and bars teachers travel… It was so great.

My find James was on .. We shared stories about spending part of a night in jail in southern Yugoslavia

Was good getting back in touch… It turns out that quite a few of us have connections to Boston. I’m hoping we could all get together at some point to share a stein of good Austrian beer

auf wiedersehen !

I got my first covid shot today . it was the same Pfizer shot that Diane got yesterday. I’ve never been so happy to get a job.

We drove up to Morrisville in the new car… There’s a fun trip it was about 30 miles so we did almost the whole round trip on all electric

I know we’re not out of the woods yet… But this is a great step forward.

Happy Passover everybody… We actually made a tiny satyr but it was a pretty perfunctory effort because I had a project I need to get done.

I did drop in to the Patzes Uberzoom Seder

The really big news for the day is that Diane got her first Covid vaccine shot… She had to drive all the way up to Mooresville to get it. Believe it or not I have to drive up there tomorrow to get mine. I know we’re not completely out of the woods yet but this is such a great step. Here’s a balloon ‘Diane saw while waiting in line for her shot
