V is for ...

Vortex



We saw this dramatic sculpture by Richard Serra at The Museum of Modern Art in Fort Worth, Texas.



Made of 2" steel slabs 10' wide and 67' tall, twisted, curved, and assembled with a 10' opening on top, the total weight is 230 tons.

Thameside Tuesday
Back at college today ...

This week I went in there and bought some spiced apple cake.

This is what it looked like before I ate it!
