Gina took the school bus to school. I drove Linda to work. She took me in, introduced me to her co-workers, and showed me around. She works for a company that produces printer-ready copy. It's called Columbia Type and Art.
Linda's walking without a cane now. The pain has diminished somewhat, but she still has pain, especially if she has to stand or walk for a prolonged period.
Roy and I drove to the Inner Harbor in Baltimore. It was a very cold, drizzly day, so we went in the Science Center there to spend the day. Saw many very interesting exhibits. In the planetarium, we watched a program on eclipses, and in the IMAX theater, we watched a really interesting movie about sharks.
Returned to the house, showered, and dressed for the graduation. Linda had to be at the college by 6:45, so we drove her and Gina over there. Then we found a parking place and walked to the gymnasium where the ceremony will be held. Gina joined us there. The place was already half full, so we were lucky to find good seats near the front and right next to the aisle the graduates came down. Roy had Linda's camera, and I had my camera, so we took lots of pictures. Hope they come out good.
Linda got her AA in Secondary Education. She has been accepted into Phi Theta Kappa, the honors society for community colleges. That was announced when they called her name and handed her her diploma, but they accidentally omitted it from the program.
After the ceremony, we went over to the Administration Building for a reception. This is a surprisingly large campus, so we had to walk quite a ways. Finally found Linda and gave her the small gift we'd brought for her. We hadn't had time to eat much supper, so we devoured the cookies, brownies, and lemonade.
