The Phillies, Youpala, and Feathers

The Phillies were ahead of the Mets yesterday, but today the Mets won and the Phillies lost, so now they're tied for first place in the NL East. There's only one game left, so after tomorrow they'll either be in first place again, tied again, or behind the Mets. It's too stressful! We found out that one of the Phillies, Jayson Werth, is from Springfield, and his mother, Kim Schofield, was in Aunt Gretchen's class in high school. We have a picture from the newspaper with Aunt Gretchen and Kim Schofield together because they were both MVP's in sports in high school. Aunt Gretchen was MVP in tennis and Kim Schofield in track. We read about a restaurant in St. Brieuc in Gourmet. It's called Youpala Bistrot, opened by a cool young chef who left Paris to go to his home town. It's at 5 Rue Palasne de Champeaux (phone is 02-96-94-50-74). The Gourmet guy really liked it, he said it was the perfect restaurant. However, he said the meal cost 45 euros and the dessert was made from beets, so I don't know if you want to try it or not.

Peter and I had fun with a little imaging project. We scanned a feather at a high resolution and zoomed in on it.
