Farewell we call to hearth and hall!
Though wind may blow and rain may fall,
We must away, ere break of day
Far over wood and mountain tall.

Why I Love UEA Sometimes
This morning, my Austen and the Brontes instructor compared Sir Walter Elliot of Persuasion to Pontius Pilate in Monty Python's Life of Brian. What more could you ask for, really?

Hi Lauren; A belated happy birthday, I haven't logged in for awhile, your travels and pix are so much fun. There's a Jane Austen series on Masterpiece theater on now, which is fun but taking a break for pledge week. Did you read the book about the Jane Austen book club? I started it but had to return it to the library, there's a movie out now which is supposed to be decent. It's amazing how much staying power she has. Anyway, sounds great with the Ireland trip, seeing the lakes and everything, take care. Aunt E
"Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road,/
Healthy, free, the world before me,/
The long brown path before me leading wherever I choose."
--Walt Whitman, "Song for the Open Road"
