In Case You Forgot

Here is my first post which still makes me shoot milk out my nose.

Enjoy.

First Published Map


I received my copy of Jewish Communities on the Ohio River: A History, which marks my first published map. When I saw something of my design bound in canvas with a dust jacket, I welled up inside. I need to do this more often. A history book without a map can still tell a story, but I cannot see how it could pull readers together the same way that a map can.

Pink Eye


For my 39th birthday, I received something I had never had before - pink eye. I saw a doctor for the first time in a few years and he gave me some antibiotic eye drops. How did I get pink eye???




Scott Baio was no where near, I thought...

I'll have to send him a Thank You Card.
