From Albany, NY (see last post) Kevin & I ventured north-east to Montpelier, VT. It should have taken 2 1/2 hours. It took 6. We missed a turn & were then subject to New England directions; "go down the valley, and turn at the lake." "Does this road have a name?" I ask. "Ah... there will be a hardware store there." "Ok," I follow, "What direction do we turn?" Repeatedly.
But! We saw beautiful farms. & beautiful country. Kevin's parents had an equally trying journey north from Virginia. This weekend also marked their 40th Wedding Anniversary! Saturday night we ate at
The New England Culinary Institute's Restaurant. Delicious!

Eva, Kevin's primary advisor, introduced his work to the community. It was really beautiful to understand what each graduate had achieved.

| It's legit, he got a diploma |
Kevin, & each graduate, had a chance to share what this graduation culminated for them. He didn't cry! I was thanked for "vicious editing."
