BCCE (Day 1)

We went to church this morning and then Karen and the girls went to the Dallas Zoo this afternoon and shot these pictures. It was fabulous, but hot (104). They kept themselves as wet as possible and in the shade. Today was the first day of the 21st Biennial Conference in Chemical Education. My talk went well - there were 25-30 people in the room and they did not all run away. Also presenting in the session was emeritus professor Stanley Manahan, who wrote the Environmental Chemistry book that I had as an undergraduate student years ago, and Geoff Rayner-Canham, one of the authors of our current Descriptive Inorganic text at Bradley.
