Walking home...

I talk on the phone the whole way and the walk goes quickly. In what seems like just a few minutes, I find myself at the entry to the Heights.

Very nice. :)

What are the Heights, by the way? The closest I've been to Wisconsin is the cheese isle at the grocery store.

This is a neighborhood called University Heights. Here are my photos that show the place, which has some great architecture.

Gerry, that's great. Congratulations.

Nice pics. I live in the Heights, but it happens to be the one in Brooklyn. Not at all a green, leafy idyll like the Wisconsin version, but beautiful in a different way. It's on a bluff facing the East River, hence the name, but you know that already.

What a great country we live in.

Richard: I lived in Brooklyn for my last 3 years of living in NYC and was always jealous of the folks who got to live in Brooklyn Heights. The NY neighborhood jealous is horrible! I bring some of that to Madison, but it's just not that bad. In NYC, I most enjoyed living in Greenwich Village, which I did for 4 years.

Gerry- I use Firefox now, so for the time being, you're my hero.

Anyone who wishes to unseat gerry as my hero can send me $3. That ought to cover it.

Haunting photo.

And hey, you've inspired a blogpost about when Reims Cathedral and I came face-to-face, when I was 11.

Cheers,
