Took nearly 2 months to finish this book, mainly because I set it down for two weeks in the middle of Imelda’s section 🐝 #iykyk

The “Art of Baseball” exhibit was a favorite and this painting of a baseball team of miners in the early 1900s definitely hit home

Excited for my first trip to the Upstate New York Immunology Conference in a rainy but still beautiful Cooperstown. Stick around for the last talk on Thursday to hear about the work in the Botten Lab @ UVM 🐱💚
