Joanna Visits!

Joanna Harris came through last weekend! It was a brief 24-hour visit, since she also has other friends here in Bloomington and was on her way up to Indianapolis for a conference with the NCAA. But it was SO great to see each other again after too many years in-between. We enjoyed reminiscing about Wheaton College days and old friends from Wheaton Academy (since Jo and Jim went to high school together for 2 years), and marveling at the crazy journeys we have all been on since college graduation 9 years ago. Joanna now lives in Atlanta, working in higher education (so she and Jim can talk for hours...), and she has convinced us that we need to come down to visit and see the laser show on Stone Mountain...

On Saturday afternoon we walked around campus - actually it was a nice afternoon and still pretty quiet since most students have yet to arrive.

In front of the Showalter Fountain, "Birth of Venus". I am working on mentally & physically preparing myself for Naartjie's birth. How's my pose?

Random shot. Oops. Not sure how it gets that bad.

Sunday morning at the entrance to the Boys & Girls Club, where our church meets.

Yay, Joanna! Thanks for coming!
