I received the highest score on the test in my Art History class. Wahoo!!

The weather is so dry. There's smoke in the air all the time. It's from fires. There are so many fires burning. Our school reported no COVID19  cases today. 

In institute I shared the miraculous story of Daria's reunification with her family. There's a young boy in the class who is adopted from Russia. He's looking for his family. I hope he can help me enter the Russian names in Family Search. He has 7 Russian adopted siblings.

Institute: We studied about Jesus. There's nothing better than that to start the week. Visual Culture: What is it like to be an artist? What do we aspire to with art?  The teacher is a sculptor. He said when he went to school here years ago, there were no sculpting classes. He had to learn sculpting from two watercolor teachers. He decided he wanted to help others so the path they take in art,  won't be as embarrassing and hard as the one he did. Who wouldn't want to learn from someone like that? Thank you, Brad Taggart! The gym: Chuck and I braved the gym. There were young, handsome strapping men and women there. We overcame our fear and did our wimpy workout. Those younguns can't help but admire us for trying.  The RV park is cooling off. It's been extremely hot. Luckily, we're in a p...
