MaGREETINGS!

If an award were given for Most Boring Vacation Photos, I have two potential winners.


Exhibit #1
This door with the Rene Magritte title (Not An Exit) was photographed while vacationing in Oregon.


Exhibit #2
I climbed five flights of stairs to photograph this shelf of books.
It was in a room with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves containing nothing but bound volumes of math journals.
I removed the tenth volume from the left (Spring, 1996) and the resulting photograph was pure ego gratification.


For the first time in my life, I was physically on the campus of the University of Oregon but my words–and numbers–preceeded me there by sixteen years.
