Week Two at the archives.

Sooo. What's going on this week? We have stuff on the go, but I hope we get more visitors as the summer goes on, because I really enjoy the detective work of tracking something down. It's sort of happening with the photo collection, because as I get more familiar with people and events over the history of the institution, it does get easier to place things in context. And I suppose, in the grander scheme of things, context is what really matters.

That will be the focus of my novel. Heh.

Either that or statistical analysis.

To provide some context, as it were, for that last comment, I should explain that on Monday we are having a visitor from the office of the local MP, and I am going to show her around. We really don't know what their concern is regarding this facility, but I want to be ready if I can for any questions. So I hope that she asks about visitor statistics, because that's what I'm preparing for.

Wow. This blog isn't funny at all. I guess I'll post, but if in retrospect it is awful, away it goes!

Perhaps something good will happen on the weekend!

  1. Yes! Keep posting. I personally found the comment about writing a novel about context humourous.
