…plus links to the Coastal Defenses…..
I took that essay on Coastal Defenses to class not fully
finished. And boy did they shred
me. And boy did I deserve it. I had dearly wanted to take something to this
last Tuesday class, and that essay was the work I had in hand.
Yes, I came home and spent all afternoon cutting in
corrections. That’s what we used to call
the editing in of corrections on newspapers.
We actually took the word or phrase, and cut out the newly reformatted
stuff with an exacto knife before putting it on top of the mistake. I got that all done, reposted it here and on
Postcards, and ready to take it to the Thursday Group. I will miss the friendships and exacting criticism from this class. It's been special.
It was off to Costco for printer ink. A good excuse to shop.
It wasn’t a good day for a diet….not at all. Cake at class….and I brought home the
leftovers, and after a slice of pizza at Costco, we had one of those very berry
things. At least we shared it. No M&M’s for last night’s Tuesday Movie
Night tho. One For The
Money is still charming but a little slow.
Below are the links I used to create my small summary of
Coastal Batteries. Just a few years ago,
there was not much interest in these architectural treasures. Today the list of links can easily be
endless. I hope if your interest was aroused
you might follow one of the links to find out more information.

It never feels good to be shredded.
ReplyDeleteThis is so fascinating. The Goodbooks link might be working. Why don't you list your sources, i.e, books, etc.
ReplyDeleteI love the stimulation of a classroom. I shall miss that.

I love hearing about to your classes. If I ever get organized, I might go back to school -- I can attend my alma mater for free.
