The Solver of the Rubik’s Cube Was….

Emily. Not much of a surprise to you readers apparently, with Emily leading in the poll all along and finishing with 8 against my 3. Solving the Rubik’s Cube was quite a feat. Em spent a good chunk of time with it over Thanksgiving weekend and consulted some online tutorials. There were some hurdles and […]

Kepler Settling In

Cat-shaped sun spot

Kepler has settled in and staked out her territory in the new apartment. One such spot is this patch of sun in the mornings. I think she subconsciously enjoys the shape of the sunbeam as much as anything. And as you can see, she has brought her stinkface with her to Providence.

Open House in Providence

Open House Invitation
