Today was dominated by a visit to the National Archeological Museum. There are thousands of artifacts that have been found, researched and displayed here, the earliest dating back to 7000 B.C. This Cycladic figurine dates back to c. 3000 B.C.

2400 Years Later
While on top of the Acropolis of Athens today, it was hard to imagine that these ruins are 10 times older than our country. This shot is of the Erechtheion, built between 421-406 B.C.

Graduation Day
6/12/10 - Day 176
It was a proud day for our family as Jared received his Bachelor's degree from the Scripps College of Communication at Ohio University. He did it in four years...thank goodness since it was out of state tuition!
It was even more special since Jordan came in from Denver to see his brother graduate and Michelle, Jared's girlfriend, was there with us also. Lin and I were pretty happy today!
