Institute

This picture does not do justice to the lively discussions and fun we have had but at least I finally got everyone in one place for the record.

left to right:  Holly (off to France for a year), Richie (who keeps us in stitches) David (fellow PhD and our local Institute teacher), me and Ellie (lately dating James so we call them Jellie).
And then there is Paul Clancy - Institute Teacher ExtraOrdinaire!

 Wish I could have added the laugh track since he always seems to find the odd tidbits that keep everyone enraptured.

The students come from far and wide just to study with him.  I am so grateful to be allowed to sit in and enjoy as well!
