HistorEEK

My husband can visit fields of old cannons and get excited about the history emanating out of the grass. I'm not so interested. Is this a male thing? I could see that Jeff was very engaged with the historical perspectives and he spoke very well of his research. I enjoyed the map activity especially since I don't do well with spatial reasoning. I was interested in the lecture for about an hour which speaks of Jeff's excellent ability considering my lack of concern about all things to do with history. I grew up in a farmhouse built in the 1700's and my parents collected antiques which I inherited. I think just the word "historical" sends me off to the coffee machine. I know it's good for me to hear and thanks for trying!
