April 1


I did two April Fools jokes. One was to our resident geologist, telling him I heard a report about Redoubt Volcano having a huge eruption that would send small amounts of ash all the way to the Midwest (in actuality its ash plume is smaller than last week).

The second was to my Gen Chem II class. No pretend meltdown and smashing a cell phone this year. I gave a quiz, but most of the questions on the quiz were answered by information given in the other questions! It was fun watching the students react: furiously working, then "getting it", and looking up at me and smiling.

Pix of the day are from the lighthouse along the Mississippi River near Hannibal, MO. (Karen and Kris liked it, but the sun was in their eyes in the picture.)
