JHU Parents Weekend

 Friday evening we spent with some of the young friends in the Baltimore area who were having a chili feed & cheese tasting. 

 This couple's house is where Devin leaves his truck parked and where we stayed for our weekend visit.  They are wonderful and Devin thinks a lot of them.

 This is the Peabody Library (part of Hopkins) which houses a special collection of books, none newer than 1940.  It is very unique & beautiful.
 Devin & Josiah in their room.  Kind of tight space, but they get along well.


 Hopkins campus is very beautiful and you wouldn't even know there is a city on the outskirts of it.



 Goofing off in the Sculpture Garden on campus.





 There are a lot of interesting & expensive pieces of equipment at the school.

JMU Parents Weekend

 We were glad that the Parents Weekends for the boys' schools were not on the same date.  Derrik's was first and we had fun doing our traditional activities such as the football game, Kline's ice cream, the a cappella concert and the truly fine feast they put on in the dining hall.


 There is a female student who is the same height & weight as James Madison.  She dresses up and stays in character as him at school events.
