Dude in a Dress and NOTO

Yesterday, and after much hoopla, the Topeka High School Historical Society unveiled the 7 foot tall bronze Trojan that now welcomes students and visitors to the main entrance of the school.  While I'm proud to be a Trojan, I'm afraid this "Dude in a Dress" may be an easy target for vandals ... especially those from rival schools.  Maybe the spotlights and video camera will help.
Speaking of art ... tonight Helen and I attended the First Friday Art Walk in the newly opened North Topeka Arts District.  It was fabulous!  The 3 new art galleries were jammed packed and people poured through the streets of North Topeka as they went from gallery to gallery.  Amazing!  This NOTO thing might actually work.

When we got home, the house was abuzz. I gathered everybody for an April Fools' Day photo.  Jonas from Hamburg, Harald from Wuppertal, Mark from Minneapolis, Mark from Perry, Helen from here, Leticia from Panama, Daya from Minneapolis and me.  
I hope your April Fools' Day was as much fun as ours.

WOW, those are SOME abs on the new Trojan. I bet in the girls bathroom there will be lots of chatter about that dude...and for many years.
