I’m in Woods Hole MA for the next 10 days, TA’ing for the Marine Biological Laboratory’s summer Embryology course. Since lecture starts at 9am and lab finishes around 2-3am, I’ll probably be an irresponsible blogger. I am hoping to get a chance to mill around the libraries and peek at all the old botanical illustrations, so hopefully I’ll have some old-school paintings and lithographs to share at the end of it all.
In the meantime, here’s some of the preposterously bright blue hydrangeas I always look forward to out here:
…and an equally preposterously adorable rabbit. We saw at least a dozen of these on our walk yesterday evening; they were extremely casual about having us walk right up to them.
Sure I’m a wild animal. Why do you ask? Hey, do you by chance have a carrot I could nibble on in a charmingly tame fashion? Or should I just curl up in your lap?
