On this Friday, Catherine and Mark both received haircuts. Catherine sat nicely for her trim, and Mark received a half-hour scalp massage (he was in heaven).
I had a meeting with John a the Sustainability Institute in the morning. Thereafter, I went to the Bellville campus to work. I sat in on a staff meeting at 13h00. At 15h00, I listened to Mark give a talk about sustainable cities for the CRSES Forum series. The discussion afterward gave me a new idea for my dematerialization paper that I'll be working on in September.
Mark made a detailed drawing of our South African house this evening. I took a photo of him with the picture. Readers who have visited us will clearly see the green fence, the driveway with its gate, the garage, the front garden, flowers, and the four of us.
Tomorrow (Saturday), we'll be leaving for an overnight mini-vacation up to the West Coast National Park. The goal is to see the Spring wildflowers there. I'll probably post many pictures upon our return (some time on Sunday).
