Clara leaves for school –
it’s a good thing (and so close),
I’ll miss late night songs.

Each day Clara trains
for next fall’s soccer season.
Determination.

Clara home from school –
her crap filled the 4Runner.
Nice to have her home.

Walked through apple trees –
some from Central Asia
(where apples come from).

Cornell women won
last night’s soccer game against
rival Binghamton.

The girl’s at college
(although we picked her up for
family dinner).

Graduation Day
for my Clara Gallagher –
on to bigger things.

Students coming back
always makes Ithaca feel
so overcrowded.

Girl is going to
Cornell to play soccer. Yay!
It’s such a relief.

The plague of locusts
scene in The Good Earth is just
thrilling. Yea Pearl Buck.
