Yesterday's Catholic history pilgrimage took me to St. Andre Bessette, who is entombed at L'Oratoire Saint‐Joseph du Mont‐Royal. Fun fact for this @uconn.bsky.social attendee of 2025 @ncph.bsky.social conference? In his youth, St. Andre worked in a textile mill in Moosup, CT!

Weird encountering materials I authored in my pre-academic careers. Patient info brochures for the corneal implant, Intacs, from my medical device marketing days. From journalism career: symposium proceedings on accounting for impacts of women's physiological differences in ocular disease research.

Credit to Duolingo for keeping me engaged in my German language learning on a daily basis. One goal for my sabbatical is to dive deeper into grammar and comprehension with learning tools that more time intensive study.

Dare to clean a drawer, cabinet, closet or other nook & cranny in my house and you will find a bag or 2 from a past #museum visit. Today's discovery from 2019 Fraunces Tavern Museum NYC

Had a wonderful time in Wachau Valley, including at Dürnstein, where we visited Stift Dürnstein, with its Wedgewood blue tower. But "Blue Danube"? No, Johann Strauss, no, it's not.
