Blind Spots and Seeing Your Own Eye’s Vascular Network
I actually did the activity near the end of this video (looking through a pin hole of light to see the vascular network inside my own eye). It was incredible and, pun intended, eye opening. Try it - you will be amazed:
Drawing Fun with Libby
Libby and I created two drawing together last weekend. They were both of similar scenes (as dictated by Libby) involving a horse, a tropical island, and a pelican flying in the air above. It was delightful to color and doodle with her - such a fertile imagination. She really seemed to have rich stories behind each object represented on these pages:
- Horse island drawing made mostly by Mike. The box around the horse is meant to be a boat, the little red-headed girl on the purple horse is rowing.
- Horse island drawing made mostly by Libby. There is a frog walking behind the horse on lily pads.
Polar Express

We visited the north pole (where Santa hopped onto the train), had chefs serving us drinks and snacks, and got our tickets punched by a real conductor. It was a thrill for the kiddos. You can see more pictures on my wife's blog.
Hitchens Has Passed
A great and provocative thinker died today. Christopher Hitchens, age 62, died from pneumonia (a complication of the oesophageal cancer he had) at a Texas hospital.
