Chinese Typewriter! and other news…

Well I have (as usual) been very busy – I’m learning Chinese this summer and during these past 5 weeks I have absorbed an entire semester’s-worth of Chinese. It’s been really amazing – I LOVE learning languages, and since I get to practice with Tom (since he speaks) AND look forward to my trip to China in August (!!!!) it’s been a very rewarding 5 weeks.

Tomorrow Tom and I are going on a camping trip – we’ll be staying in one of California’s National Parks and enjoying the beautiful weather!

Some pretty cool news – Tom’s newest research project is on the Chinese Typewriter and, after researching them for nearly a year now and day-dreaming about eventually seeing one, he actually GOT one! You can watch the whole story in a video on his new blog:

As always, I’d love to hear from you all!
