More from West Chester University...Khristos Voskrese, Voistinu Voskrese

This will be a short blog, in contrast to the fact that the weekend was crammed with so much stuff, Friday night was a nice long walk in the borough, Saturday was a day (and a lot of the night) trip to Washington DC, and Sunday was Russian Orthodox Easter, and thus a pretty long day, having managed to cram in a trip out to Net Cost, the Russian Grocery Store on Bustleton Pike north of Philly, then down to St Andrew's Russian Orthodox Church, for the blessing of the Easter Baskets, and then back to West Chester University for a presentation by the Russian Language and Drama Club of some classic Russian Fairy Tales, including Teremok, and The Turnip.



Thanks to Dr. Jim Jones of WCJIM fame for referencing the play at WCU on his website, and thanks to Dr. Alice Speh for keeping me informed about the play, it definately capped a fun weekend! Oh, and thanks mostly to Lana, you know, for just everything...OH, and I just noticed, look for how long (minutes and seconds) the video runs.....I'm just saying...

There seems to be a suspicious amount of Russian related interests. I wonder what brought that about.

And the video is 1 minute, 39 seconds. Close but no cigar.
