Here&#8217;s the story: <!--more|inline--><br \/>\nOf the four years Kari has been at UNH, Kris and I have tried to go out (with Pat and Bob) to visit her and the area at Fall Break &#8212; we made it three times. On the first day of our visit this year, it rained, but we managed to visit a few places, including Salem, where we spied the statue to Hawthorne &#8212; and now I want to read <em>The Scarlet Letter<\/em> again:<br \/>\n<a title=\"100_0533.JPG\" class=\"imagelink\" href=\"http:\/\/www.jesuscreed.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/100_0533.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"100_0533.JPG\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jesuscreed.org\/2006\/10\/100_0533.thumbnail.JPG\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nKari is now dating a young man named Jonathan Williams, who was a star football player last year at UNH and is now coaching at Hamilton College in New York.<br \/>\n<a title=\"100_0539.JPG\" class=\"imagelink\" href=\"http:\/\/www.jesuscreed.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/100_0539.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"100_0539.JPG\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jesuscreed.org\/2006\/10\/100_0539.thumbnail.JPG\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThis weekend his team played Colby College up in Maine, so we all drove up to Colby College to see the Hamilton team beat the Colby team 6-0. We met up with a friend from Freeport (IL) and her husband, Linda and George Roth. (They live at Orchard Beak, ME.) It was great to see them &#8212; and we had a wonderful dinner together at Yellowfin&#8217;s and then some homemade apple pie later at their home &#8212; during the Cards-Tigers game. Back to Colby&#8217;s football game with Hamilton. Here&#8217;s a picture from the game:<br \/>\n<a title=\"100_0534.JPG\" class=\"imagelink\" href=\"http:\/\/www.jesuscreed.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/100_0534.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"100_0534.JPG\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jesuscreed.org\/2006\/10\/100_0534.thumbnail.JPG\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nI must state that Colby&#8217;s central building, on the top of what is called Mayflower Hill, is the library. Check it out:<br \/>\n<a title=\"100_0537.JPG\" class=\"imagelink\" href=\"http:\/\/www.jesuscreed.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/100_0537.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"100_0537.JPG\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jesuscreed.org\/2006\/10\/100_0537.thumbnail.JPG\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nSomething about the visit to Colby created in us a need to visit academic institutions while we were there. So, we visited Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine.<br \/>\n<a title=\"100_0540.JPG\" class=\"imagelink\" href=\"http:\/\/www.jesuscreed.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/100_0540.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"100_0540.JPG\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jesuscreed.org\/2006\/10\/100_0540.thumbnail.JPG\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThen we just had to visit Phillips Exeter Academy down in Exeter, Mass &#8212; which was the setting for <em>The Dead Poets Society<\/em>. We walked around that campus &#8212; saw some pretty fancy frisbee tossing.<br \/>\n<a title=\"100_0543.JPG\" class=\"imagelink\" href=\"http:\/\/www.jesuscreed.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/10\/100_0543.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"100_0543.JPG\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jesuscreed.org\/2006\/10\/100_0543.thumbnail.JPG\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nBob, Kari, and Pat.
