| I awakened on a cool Saturday morning needing to get ready for a short drive to nearby Midway University. Snow from earlier in the week still covered the ground but never obstructed my drive. This beautiful drive through horse country allowed me to appreciate a number of very swanky ranches. Miles of wooden fences lined both sides of the road. I drove on Man O War Boulevard. I drove through a roundabout with a giant statue of the legendary Secretariat. The people in this area were truly serious about their horse racing. | |
Finding the university was simple. I drove under the gate arm and took a right to drive around to the rear of the school. I parked behind the library and walked across the snow-lined sidewalks to find the Stark Building. I found myself along in the dark, a few minutes before anyone else arrived. Here is where I would present pedagogy for lessons about The Pilgrims, the Mayflower Compact, and the First Thanksgiving.
