From the book itself....

"It was in Warwick Castle that I came across the curious stranger whom I am going to talk about. He attracted me by three things: his candid simplicity, his marvelous familiarity with ancient armor, and the restfulness of his company-- for he did all the talking. We fell together, as modest people will, in the tail of the herd that was being shown through, and he at once began to say things which interested me. As he talked along, softly, pleasantly, flowingly, he seemed to drift away imperceptibly out of this world and time, and into some remote era and old forgotten country; and so he gradually wove such a spell about me that I seemed to move among the specters and shadows and dust and mold of a gray antiquity, holding speech with a relic of it!"

Quick Check In


Hello everyone!!

I just got back to class today after a great Easter Break, I hope all of you had a good Easter weekend/week as well.

Things in Athens were incredible and I cannot wait to share all my photos and stories with you. Speaking of which I am working on them now, and hopefully I can start getting them posted in the next few days.

To give you an idea of what I am working with, during my five day visit to Greece, I amassed just under 1,300 photos and nearly 25 mins of video. Everything turned out so great as well, so there is plenty to share!

So look for the Greece videos to begin being posted in the next few days, and I'll get stories out as I get them written out.

Hope everyone is enjoying the spring weather!


best
Patrick
